There is little question that COVID case and death reports are exaggerated and have been from the beginning. There are various incentives presented through the system for this over reporting.

Or, is it under reporting of cases? Which by the way would change the death rate if accurately reported. Even NBC reported this from the CDC in June.

It is actually both.

Below are just a few reports where COVID math doesn't work. There are many more.

What does this mean? Don't believe headlines or whatever the media reports on this or any subject. Vary your news sources, to develop some realistic perspective.
