Texas health officials removed more than 3,000 reported coronavirus cases from an overall count after "probable" cases for people who were never tested were counted as confirmed cases.
Since we report confirmed cases on our dashboard, we have removed 3,484 previously reported probable cases from the statewide and Bexar County totals
...
Texas today had to remove 3,484 cases from its Covid-19 positive case count, because the San Antonio Health Department was reporting probable cases for people never actually tested, as 'confirmed' positive cases... What other departments make this same mistake?
...
The change in cases comes as questions have been raised across the country about coronavirus testing, most notably in Florida. An investigation in the state determined that the test positivity rate reported by officials was inaccurate and that the number of positive tests was much lower than reported.
In May, coronavirus task force member Dr. Deborah Birx suggested that the actual number of coronavirus cases could be inflated by as much as 25%
...
Questions about the number of coronavirus cases have also been raised in Colorado, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey over claims that suspected coronavirus patients are dying from causes other than the virus.

Take this X50 and all of a sudden the Lib Loonies have nothing to bitch about!
But still they’re left with ol’ Basement Biden
Just scratching the surface of the COVID counting fraud
Everyone involved with this fraud should be prosecuted. People involved who have any type of medical licenses should lose them. This is just the tip of the iceberg with this fraud.
Now check Austin, Houston and Dallas. All blue areas with motive to lie
Agree.
Look at the lives ruined by loss of income/livelihoods.
Kids being kept out of schools for a SHAM.
A ton of articles (and even posts, right here) mentioned how refrigerated trucks were taking over Houston, at hospitals, due to overloaded morgues.
I researched and could only find one hospital mentioned in reports. One hospital in North Houston, which is no where near the Houston Medical Center.
Id like to see a refrigerated truck actually being loaded up, in Houston.
This was NOT a mistake.
It has been official CDC policy since 24 March 2020.
“The WHO has provided a second code, U07.2, for clinical or epidemiological diagnosis of COVID-19 where a laboratory confirmation is inconclusive or not available. Because laboratory test results are not typically reported on death certificates in the U.S., NCHS is not planning to implement U07.2 for mortality statistics.”
What does that paragraph mean?
It means that ALL presumed cases of COVID-19, and ALL presumed deaths from COVID-19, are reported as confirmed cases and confirmed deaths.
It means that before the CDC changed the rules, presumed COVID-19 cases were reported in a separate category.
Yes, the false reporting of deaths as corona-deaths is a much bigger problem. CDC adds and encourages "presiumed" corona-death in their counts.
I hate the way the government incentivizes fraud. He well will give you xxx dollars for every COVID case. What could possible go wrong???
60 million had H1N1, in US.
Did we shut down?
Did Faux-chi and 0bola close the country down??
It was MUCH more dangerous for YOUNGER children.
Did they close schools down??
Of corse they didnt.
Its all about damaging PDJT.
Dr. Annie Bukacek, MD, explained how death certificates are being manipulated / based on assumptions and guesses that go unquestioned..
Someone who dies with the disease is not the same as someone who dies from the disease..
Hospitals get paid more for Coronavirus-coded patients, even if they have not been tested.

Result of bypassing CDC?
Yes indeed. come on, someone in President Trump’s administration - get the governors to do what Texas has done!
Heck I dont even remember swine flu, that is what little coverage the virus got..but the commie media had to protect their messiah obama so they said nothing
Well, I think reality is going to catchj up very soon, even with CDC fudging the cause of death. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/excess_deaths.htm#dashboard The chart now shows us dropping below excess deaths and moving into fewer deaths than normal. Keep in mind the chart includes a modeled addition for yet-to-be-reported deaths. That makes up for the lag in reporting by various jurisdixtions although it is subject to change.
Anyone know whether Abbott and Fauci are trying to move them back into the virus death count?
Re: “Just scratching the surface of the COVID counting fraud.”
100% correct.
It is official CDC policy to count 100% of pneumonia deaths, and 100% of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) deaths as COVID-19 deaths - if COVID-19 is also present, or if COVID-19 is presumed to be present.
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss/vsrg/vsrg03-508.pdf
Page 2: “If COVID19 played a role in the death, this condition should be specified on the death certificate. In many cases, it is likely that it will be the UCOD, as it can lead to various life threatening conditions, such as pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In these cases, COVID19 should be reported on the lowest line used in Part I with the other conditions to which it gave rise listed on the lines above it.”
What does that mean?
It means that “UCOD” (Underlying Cause of Death) is always COVID-19, which is always the final cause of death.
Please also view sample death certificates on pages 4-7 from the link above.
Bottom Line...
Compare that to how the CDC counts influenza and common cold deaths.
Less than 10% of pneumonia + influenza deaths are classified as influenza deaths!
“So it begins”...
Just scratching the surface of the COVID counting fraud!
Amen Bro!
