It'll be impossible to know, now that they've moved the goalposts and changed what they're counting as "covid cases" these days. Going by their previous description, it might be slightly higher than the flu. But going by their "had prior contact with a covid patient and exhibiting a symptom" bullshit? The data is tainted.
And how to filter out 'multiple positives' by the same patient. Are those counted as multiple cases? I think the numbers have gotten so messed up at this point, and the WH can't release any lack of confidence in these numbers because of losing face to the nation. When the tell-all books come out from Fauci and the other testing team members in a couple of years, this is going to reveal a complete CF behind the scenes with these numbers. We were woefully unprepared for a pandemic. Surprise!
