‘Several hundred thousand’ new COVID cases a day aren’t being reported as hospitalizations keep climbing
Market Watch ^ | 07/09/2022 | Tomi Kilgore

While fears may be growing that another COVID-19 surge will be upon us in the coming months, there is some indication that the future is now.

There’s a reason data show that, while the positivity rate of COVID tests has spiked to five-month highs, and hospitalizations have steadily climbed to four-month highs, new daily COVID cases have held steady for the past couple of months.

The new cases are being undercounted because results of widely available at-home tests aren’t being reported for government tabulation. The Fourth of July holiday has also caused reporting delays. And many states have stopped providing daily updates, as the New York Times reported.

“There’s no question in my mind that we’re missing a vast majority of infections right now,” White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator Ashish Jha said on NBC’s “Nightly News with Lester Holt” on Thursday. “The truth is, there are probably several hundred thousand, four or five hundred thousand, infections today happening across the country...”

we’re missing a vast majority of infections right now

Otherwise, if true they are missing 'vast' amounts of supposed positive tests/'cases'. So obviously this vast amount of folks supposedly down with covid are all recovering from the summer cold or flu and carrying on instead of dying to make their stats look bleaker.

We have turned into a nation of hypochondriacs ... of germ-o-phobes of the Howard Hughes type ... especially among American “men” ...

There is a lot of “Covid” going around now. I finally got it and know a whole lot of people who have had it in the last month or two. I don’t know anyone who has been hospitalized with whatever this strain is and the general description is that it is a moderate flu for 48 hours. I felt pretty tired for a few days after.

I continue to meet and learn of more people with vaccine injuries.

I was vaccinated with the J&J shortly after it came out but the vaccines (then and now) are meaningless because they ARE NOT even designed for the current strain(s) of Covid, which have become less potent.

It is infuriating that they are pushing a vaccine that did not work and for which they admit it has little if any efficacy for the current strain AND the potential side effects from the vaccine appear far worse (and more deadly).

My entire family and I got it last week. About three days of a nasty flu then the last 6 days of recovery. We didn’t go to the doctors but I went to prompt care for something else and they did a test on me when I said I was sick over the weekend but feeling much better. Now, I’m getting stupid texts from the State wanting me to report my whereabouts.

I just posted a thread this week about our latest experiences.

As I asked my nurse aunt, who was going thru it last month, what of all the tests they did in her household?

Everyone in her house except my mother got it, and tested positive - AT HOME.

None of those 6+ tests they did counted for cases!

The cases are MUCH HIGHER than officially presented. Especially now since we all have home tests.

This means the death rate is even smaller than it looks - which means it’s not as bad as the tyrannical scare-mongers want us to believe.

My sweet Lord .... More made-up BS from the left. It’s all lies and propaganda. I hope more people are seeing through this.

My family and I never got the shot and so far we are doing fine. Recovery is slow but we made it and it’s day 11 for us.

If the cases aren’t being reported, how do these people know they are happening?

Meanwhile the FDA continues to drag its feet on a approving the Novavax shot, even after the FDA advisory board approved it in June and has been approved worldwide as a COVID vaccine.

a strain a little bit different than the original strain...

Sounds like big pharma's lackey doctors explanation when asked why the flu vaccines (before covid) weren't working; 'we expected a different flu this year'.

the “ihealth covid19 antigen rapid test” that is being distributed under “fda emergency use authorization” is made in china...

women can pee on a device to determine pregnancy results...

kinda strange our government is requiring people to shove chinese made products up their noses to test for anything at this point in time...

My girlfriend and I are just emerging from an upper respiratory infection: a cough caused by phlegm in the throat, nasal congestion, some sneezing, and loss of sense of taste/smell. No apparent fever, and no sore throat. My GF had significant fatigue, but I didn't. This is the first time either of us have been sick since February, 2020, when both of us had cold symptoms that lasted about three weeks as they tapered off.

Neither of us are vaccinated, but we both follow some of the OTC protocols that have been recommended (D3, Zinc, etc.). Was this Covid? Maybe, because in mild-to-moderate cases the symptoms are like a common cold or flu.

Concur @ post 63

It has essentially become a version of the “flu” and based on the numerous people I know who have had it or have it now it is generally less severe than seasonal flu.

I believe Pierre Kory or one of the other docs actually trying to do something to treat the first version was banned from twitter or fakebook for suggesting that it would likely transition to something closer to the common cold or flu.

In general, if you’re not over 65, your personal experience with symptoms is not important. You were never at risk and are not part of the vulnerable population.

What you were or are is a carrier. If you want to kill people, hang out around old folks when you are infected. If you don’t want to kill them, don’t be around them.

Because we all know that of course the government would NEVER over count Covid cases. Right?

And notice, it’s positive test results not deaths.

That's the problem with the coronavirus response led by CDC and NIH. At the beginning, they did not tell the American people who were considered to be "high-risk".

I’m 61 years and a little over 51 weeks old. I’m overweight, but also in good health. I have COVID as I type this. Started last Thursday.

It’s not even a bad cold. I’m already feeling better.
