I dont have the time to source everything.
1) Coronavirus Disease 2019 Case Surveillance — United States ...
These aggregate counts are of individual reports and can be multiple reports per individual with COVID19. If a person is tested twice on the same day, that is two cases, not one case. Only 24 states are deflating the counts by reporting the case count of INDIVIDUALS with COVID19 instead of the case reports. So there is a lot of redundancy here and no one knows how much.
2) Of the total case count 40% is of asymptomatic people, meaning they are not suffering from the disease.
3) OF the total deaths from COVID19, only 3.5% of the people are under the age of 44. over 40% of the cases of death are older people with either cardio vascular diseas (31%), diabetic (30%) or have lung issues (19%). So we can easily open the economy and protect the vulnerable through self isolation as the Swedes have done it.
4) We are testing at the highest rate of any nation on the planet, so of course we will see a rise in the number of cases, some of them being redundant with previous counts.
5) hospitalization counts are of ALL causes, not just COVID 19, which is still dropping.
This is more Fake News bullshit trying to scare the public into wearing masks that back in February Fauci said were ineffective anyway.
1) Coronavirus Disease 2019 Case Surveillance — United States ...
As of May 30, a total of 1,761,503 aggregate U.S. cases of COVID-19 and 103,700 associated deaths were reported to CDC. Although average daily reported cases and deaths are declining, 7-day moving averages of daily incidence of COVID-19 cases indicate ongoing community transmission.¶¶¶¶
The COVID-19 case data summarized here are essential statistics for the pandemic response and rely on information systems developed at the local, state, and federal level over decades for communicable disease surveillance that were rapidly adapted to meet an enormous, new public health threat. CDC aggregate counts are consistent with those presented through the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Coronavirus Resource Center, which reported a cumulative total of 1,770,165 U.S. cases and 103,776 U.S. deaths on May 30, 2020.
