CDC amends Florida’s COVID-19 numbers after pushback from state officials
NY Post ^ | 08/11/2021 | David Marcus

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention adjusted its COVID-19 tracking for the state of Florida on Tuesday as confusion over reporting practices sparked a feud between federal and state authorities.

After the CDC website showed record high numbers for Sunday, Aug. 8, the Florida Department of Health balked, accusing the agency of folding several days of new cases into one.

The gap was significant, with the CDC initially claiming there were 28,317 new cases on Sunday, while the Florida DOH puts that number at 15,319.

On Tuesday the CDC adjusted its number down to 19,584.

The CDC is on the warpath to GET DESANTIS.

The CDC needs to be defunded for being the Marxist clods that they are.

Worldometers is showing lower numbers than other sources for the USA as whole day to day while the BNO Newsroom Twitter puts out higher US numbers day to day citing massive numbers in Florida.

Too many are playing their role politically rather than what could truly benefit the public.

These numbers from the results of a test that the CDC is now saying is unreliable and should not be used.

pepsi_junkie; "So the CDC just made up a number?"

Are you suggesting that the CDC may have originally lied with their statistics ?
until confronted ?
Yeah ,.. it kinda sounds like it !
Or else they were using the old Dominion software in their calculations

No, that would be ridiculous. It appears they negotiated a number. That’s science.

I guess the Atlanta ballot counters work at the CDC during their off season. Did the find another case or two of COVID results under the table at 2AM?

Not just the cases.

The deaths, too.

NYS counts asymptomatics, probables, and repeat positives of the same patient as new cases.

CoupFlu has NEVER been about public health.

In science discrete things that can be counted objectively, like the number of positive tests on Day X, are not negotiated. They are counted. Florida is responsible for counting them. If the CDC is "Negotiating" a different number than what was counted is not science, it's politics.

We’re way past that. The constant doubling down is a distraction from the illicit funding of the ChiCom’s Wuhan bioweapon by Dr. Fallacy.

Now we know why.
