the idiot above has no clue as always.
Imagine that I am wrong about that. But guess how nay people have been accurately tested for Covid-19 according to the really knowledge of what the virus really seems to be. Very few. Accurate complex tests would almost include electron microscope viewing for each patient.
Why would testing like this be necessary? Because with anything less, tests would be so similar that there is no way to tell accurately that anybody has Covid-19.
imagine you are double wrong.. infact triple wrong
because. once doing all the lengthy tests. labs can find certain characteristics that are unique to covid19 that are not present in MERS/SARS.
and can actually be even better than just the human eye visual check.
all this stuff is covered in december/january science.. and i know you cannot quite grasp the concept that february, march april are in the past. i must now break it to you that we are now in May and alot of science has moved forward..
what you should also know that in the CDC 'provisional cases' talked about multiple times a few pages back.. the normal 'all cause death tally' always hovered around 57k a week most weeks of the year.
yet the amount of deaths of all causes increased. which showed some unusual above average event was killing more people then usual.
what you will also notice is that if you take the 4/4/2020 as just one example the covid TESTED amount was 8k. the total all causes deaths was higher by that amount.. and yet they still had other columns of influenza that did not go down or up. which shows they were still testing people for the normal stuff. and people were still getting the normal stuff and there was no mix up
because that week if doctors were mixing things up the 'covid deaths' would look like 13k by also containing the normal influenza and the other cause pneumonia aswell.. the normal pneumonia causes and normal influenza remained at same levels with pneumonia at ~4k and flu at ~500
there is a clear differential that shows they appear to be diagnosing correctly.
so when media was showing the public numbers for the week ending 4/4/2020 of ~8k and not ~13k it shows they were not just throwing everything into the covid category
