Twitter removes QAnon supporter's false claim retweeted by Trump about coronavirus death stats

Jesus, will there ever be an end to The President of the United States repeating the musings of lunatics?

(CNN) Twitter on Sunday took down a tweet containing a false claim about coronavirus death statistics that was made by a supporter of the baseless QAnon conspiracy theory -- a post that President Donald Trump had retweeted earlier in the day.​

​

The tweet -- which has been replaced with a message saying, "This Tweet is no longer available because it violated the Twitter Rules -- from "Mel Q," copied from someone else's Facebook post, claimed that the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had "quietly" updated its numbers "to admit that only 6%" of people listed as coronavirus deaths "actually died from Covid," since "the other 94% had 2-3 other serious illnesses."​

​

That's not what the CDC said.​

He just repeated it AGAIN in his interview with Laura Ingraham, who BTW did an excellent job with real time fact checking.
No Donald, just stop it. Your followers may be that stupid, but 30% ain't gonna win you an election.

The CDC did not ‘quietly adjust’ US coronavirus deaths

Over the weekend, President Donald Trump shared two posts that falsely claimed COVID-19 deaths are not as high as previo

CDC has not reduced the death count related to COVID-19

Some widely shared social media posts suggest the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention “backpedaled” on the number of deaths caused by COVID-19, but an AP Fact Check finds that’s not true

What the numbers tell us is that many causes of death overlap

telling the public that 160k people died due solely to the chinese disease is a misrepresentation of the facts

If we've learned anything over the last several months, it's that Twaffler is all about misrepresenting facts.

186 thousand Gomer. Likely a massive undercount. Just because there is an underlying condition doesn't invalidate cause of death. You can buy into QAnon conspiracy theories about Lizard people and Pedophile Democrats if that's what blows yer skirt up. The rest of us will go with FACTS.

No.

He doesn't care how it looks outside of that universe.

Pretty sure most of us just haven't connected all the dots. Thank you Lord Cheesus for President Trump!

Does that include the motorcyclist who was hit by a car?

we know the numbers are not accurate

my guess is that many of those folks were near death to begin with and when all the numbers for 2020 are in the actual death rate per million will be about the same

You're link didn't work because you put an X in front of it. But I found it.
A mistake was made and they fixed it. BFD. Did they make another 186,000 mistakes just like it?

Official U.S.tallies likely undercount COVID-19 deaths

The United States is the hardest-hit nation amid the coronavirus pandemic, with its case toll has topping 2.73 million. The death toll in the official tally has reached 128,742. Now, a new study published in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine suggests that the coronavirus disease (COVID-19)...

Trump’s continued reckless, irresponsible lying should come as a surprise to no one.

Trump’s supporters will ignore Trump’s lying, as usual.

Trump’s opponents have already resolved to vote Trump out of office.

The next president will be determined by a tiny minority of apolitical independent non-partisan voters who aren’t currently paying attention to the presidential election.

Who could have made a mistake like that?

some illegal alien who does not speak English?

these are medical professionals who should know the difference between a traffic accident and the chinese disease

No they do not. The coronavirus caused their deaths. There is no misrepresentation of anything. You are just trying to cover. You apparently are a qanon crackpot.

I strongly suspect that the overall number of deaths in America during 2020 from all cause will be about the same as in 2019

Qanoners are quite kooky.
