The CDC just readjusted the COVID-19 death numbers. They’ve dropped significantly, causing many people to wonder what the heck is going on.
The number of Coronavirus dead went from 60,000 U.S. deaths to 37,000.
The more inflated number is being called a “gaffe” apparently.
Just like that, CDC reduces its #Coronavirus [1] death count to 37,000. That’s nearly HALF the total they were peddling. Did 30,000 people spring back to life like Lazarus? No, this seems a “gaffe”—defined as a case of the CDC accidentally telling the truth https://t.co/fkrbxDbPem [2]

This is sure to further erode public trust in the “experts.”
The public was already leery after the projected 5 million deaths were whittled down to 200k and then whittle down to 60k.
That’s not to say we’re not terribly sad to lose even one American life to this wretched virus. It’s awful and sad and shouldn’t have happened this way. Thanks, China.
But how did the experts get this thing so wrong? Will there be an investigation into this so we can understand why the numbers were so wildly off and our media touted them without even a second glance to make sure everything was on the up and up?
And those people suggesting that “social distancing” brought the numbers down are feeding you a line of BS. Every single model – even the ones predicting 5.2 million Americans dead – factored in “100% social distancing” in the model and quarantine levels that we did not even come remotely close to in this country.
Some folks are speculating that perhaps pneumonia deaths were lumped in with the COVID deaths? And the death rate is now at a shocking 0.3 percent?

Others, like conservative pundit and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza, are suggesting that perhaps the “error” was more about funding than anything else.
CDC continues to peddle 60,000 plus deaths from #Coronavirus [1] but this seems to be the padded number or “funding-oriented” statistic. Here’s the CDC’s real number, screen shot from its own site pic.twitter.com/wBWawQfLSL [5]

Let’s hope that everyone can get on the same page and get these numbers right so that people can get back (safely) to their lives before we all face an economic depression that could literally kill millions of people and destroy our children’s futures.
