Michigan admits underreporting 200K+ COVID-19 cases, many during worst wave

Michigan underreported tens of thousands of new weekly infections during the worst wave of the COVID-19, an error that state officials didn’t correct until last month.

The Michigan Department of Health and Humans Services in October revised the onset date of roughly 200,000 COVID-19 infections and acknowledged to Bridge Michigan that, prior to those changes, the state had misreported the timing of roughly 6% of the 3.3 million cases since the pandemic began in March 2020.

The state blamed the problem on a computer error, saying that as people got COVID-19 for a second or third time, some new infections were considered a “reinfection” and were assigned to the date of that person’s earlier illness.

That led to lower reported case counts including during the massive omicron wave, with the state reporting up to 30% fewer infections each week than which were actually occurring.

So, they didn’t exaggerate/propagandize enough? Got it.

I seriously doubt the validity of this report or the claim.

If they under reported cases, It would make the Chinavirus look much more deadly.

No telling how many of those “cases”, especially the repeat cases were actually the flu.

Let’s concentrate on the under reporting of nursing home deaths due to Governess Whitless sending COVID positive mental patients there.

Reported fewer infections but also means any number of deaths were significantly lower.

These a-holes are trying to say there’s MORE cases?
Screw them all. America isn’t standing for their garbage anymore.

Yes, and of the rather un-deadly omicron variant as they call it.

Is there federal backpay that Michigan is trying to get by saying, “Oh wait. We had more cases than we thought. We need more money to recoup our covid expenses.” ?

They are trying to hide the truth about the ‘Covid vaccines’, which were developed using China’s computer modeling and accessing information from prior viruses, instead of the actual Covid virus, because isolated samples of the Covid virus were ‘unavailable.’ That couldn’t work, of course, because Fauci told us that Covid was ‘novel’ and our immune systems were not prepared for it, but, whatever.

So when the public was ‘vaccinated’ (welp, that was actually gene therapy) and became ill with Covid again and again, they hid the repetitious infections. Here’s the quote:

“During the omicron wave in late 2021 and early 2022, weekly case counts were actually 25% to 30% higher than what was reported at the time because of the data problem. (Bridge photo by Brayan Gutierrez)”

It was important to hide the truth from the public because ‘vaccine hesitancy’ might increase if the public realized the ‘vaccine’ didn’t work. They even passed up that sweet sweet Covid incentive money for treating and if possible, hospitalizing ‘Covid’ (gene therapy) patients.

See, if you don’t want to admit the ‘vaccines’ don’t work, you gotta get yourself a ‘data problem.’

If the lid gets truly blown off, and ALL the facts become known on this, anyone who helped create the virus, who propogated the lie about the so-called vaccines being effective when they weren't, assisted in quaranting people leading to their deaths, etc, etc, should be tried in a new set of Nuremberg trials and sentenced accordingly. Everyone from Fauci to the local doctors should held to count.

We were so lied to!

It should start with Obama and top democrats who went along, funded the research and released it. And don’t forget Pfizer! It was a massive crime against humanity.
