Yeah, it's really clear that you haven't read through any of those. And I bet you didn't think I'd read through all of them either.
Because then you'd understand that the process is on-going, and being updated with older information. Like in one of the articles you linked "comparing the numbers between sources is like comparing stock prices of two different companies in week old newspapers."
So, as errors are caught as with the 1 guy in 100 in Florida, they are removed.
And if you're like "well, well, if that's the case, why aren't the totals being adjusted down?"
Because by then more cases have come in, and blow past that 1% error rate like it's nothing.
Yeah, the people being removed from the list don't make a dent in the number of new cases.
Look at the infection count- we know that's under-reported because not eveyone has been tested. We KNOW that infected people have not been tested and continue to spread the virus. We KNOW that some people have no symptoms and continue to spread.
So we know that the infection rate is radically under reported.
The death counts are not 100% accurate in real time. They get adjusted. LIke, for example, when the first reported death happened. We used to think it happened in Seattle. Turns out no, due to an autopsy, we know that 3 people died in California weeks before the Seattle case.
And those people had no contact with China.

So we KNOW that the virus was in California and spreading through the community weeks before anyone suspected it was there. And those 3 people died from it.
The lag time between initial infection and death is about a month.
We know that the virus was in California in mid-January and spreading. That means a lot more people died from it. People we will likely never know because they've already been buried or cremated.
But let's run some logic. I know this will be hard for you. But we're gonna do it.
Florida. It's run by a Republican. Who appoints Republicans to run the government. Why would Republicans actively over-report deaths? It's not like there's a bonus for them for every person who dies.
What's the motive to over-report?
