He should go to the CDC webpage for guidance, not wait for Trump’s tweets. Maryland doesn’t have any state health organizations that will work with federal agencies for information on how to handle this?
Of course there is no real problem. The Governor is pandering to the left base, as he needs to do in Maryland.
You cannot compare the numbers revorded by the CDC for the US with numbers recorded by other countries. There is no universally used standard definition of “COVID case” and “COVID death”. The CDC is manipulating numbers to inflate cases and deaths for political gain.
The CDC has been a rogue agency working under the guise of being “the Trump Administration”. Trump is now requiring COVID data sent to the CDC to be also sent directly to the WH before being massaged by the CDC. Once the CDC-in data is compared to the CDC-out data, the CDC manipulation will become obvious to all.
There is anecdotal evidence presented by medical workers of the CDC skewing of stats via their instructions to health services. Those testimonies are relatively quickly removed from social media and internet platforms by labelling them as breaking TOS.
The states are which has already been shown repeatedly, don’t pretend otherwise.
Not only is anyone who dies of any cause but with Covid being counted as a covid deaths thousands of presumptive deaths without a test or even a diagnosis based on symptoms have been recorded as covid deaths.
