YES  and undermines all the other stuff Biden is saying --excessive masking, mandates, on & on

Also there's lots of media pushing the idea that conditions are really bad. along with Biden

We heard how Cuomo had his staff doctor the figures when he wanted folks & media to think he was doing well. 

Now the Dems are determined to exert maximum control, with masking edicts, etc.  Claiming conditions re very bad.  And the media are buying in.  Now again doctoring the stats.   

Report titled: Texas Tribune makes major COVID-19 error, publishes weaselly correction   Click Here  

Reporting erroneously that 5,800 kids in Texas hospitalized in one week, but then not mentioning the actual number in it's correction.   Could be about 142 kids weekly, calculating their average over the last 5-1/2 weeks

Bottom line = be careful with these statistics.  Sometimes understated OR sometimes overstated depending on politics.
