The CDC is over counting the number of China coronavirus cases in an apparent effort to keep the country shut down throughout the summer. This fraudulent activity was uncovered by the far-left Atlantic proving even a dead clock is right twice a day.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is conflating the results of two different types of coronavirus tests, distorting several important metrics and providing the country with an inaccurate picture of the state of the pandemic.
We’ve learned that the CDC is making, at best, a debilitating mistake: combining test results that diagnose current coronavirus infections with test results that measure whether someone has ever had the virus.
The upshot is that the government’s disease-fighting agency is overstating the country’s ability to test people who are sick with COVID-19.
The agency confirmed to The Atlantic on Wednesday that it is mixing the results of viral and antibody tests, even though the two tests reveal different information and are used for different reasons. This is not merely a technical error. States have set quantitative guidelines for reopening their economies based on these flawed data points.GRTWT.
The Atlantic story is from May 21st.
I actually posted on it here. But I must admit, I did not think about the fact that those test meant that they were overstating the number of active cases.
I was so focused on the lethality rate that I did not take note of the overstatement of active cases.
On the other hand, along with the total number of deaths, the lethality rate is the most important number out there.
Only in a time like now, when the CDC is trying to tell us the Coronavirus is getting worse (because case numbers are up) when it is getting better (because deaths are down) is a story like this truly important.
And, the biggest news here is either the CDC doesn't know what the fuck they are doing, or they are lying.

It is a lie.
I think so too.
TO further complicate matters the CDC's own website states that certain of the anti-body tests may give a false positive for past infection in that ANY of the different coronaviruses (such as cause the common cold) may cause a positive. So there is no way to really know what the total true infection rate has been.

And we are using these idiots to give us advice on shutting down the economy.
At this late juncture, I only know 2 people, very peripherally, and both very old, who have died of Coronavirus.
I know one guy who was diagnosed and he says he was tired and had a headache for two days, and that was it.
