Nobody played with the numbers. They get revised over time as new data comes in. In this case the number was revised in November. The data was out there, you just pulled old newspaper articles from before the revision was made.
Obviously the November revision was because the CDC had been tipped off a new respiratory virus was coming and they had to make it look worse than is actually was going to be.
So the CDC had to downward revise the flu numbers for 2018-19âŚotherwise the Deep State would never be able to get away with tanking the economy and enslaving everyone in order to get rid of Donald Trump.
Why do you keep saying 60-80,000? The latest estimate is 61,099. And that was an entire flu season. We had more confirmed covid deaths in the month of April than the entire estimated 2017-2018 flu season. Do you know how many confirmed flu deaths we had in 2017-2018? 15,630.
Sadly, you are reporting about 800-1000 cases a day, and that trend is ticking up. Iâm sorry, but you guys are not out of the woods yet. You are NJ in early April.
