Statistics doesn't care about your politics, Trumptards. It doesn't know where the US embassy in Benghazi is. It doesn't know anything about Burisma.

Yes, COVID case outcomes are tracked (disease surveillance) -- this person had COVID, did they live or die? This is where you see initial and projected death counts from. This is how hospitals and other medical systems earn some of their COVID funding.

But, in every state there is a system in place with CDC guidelines to reconcile death certificates and coroner's reports with disease surveillance data. Some states are better at it than others. That said, the states that are bad at this practice are the same states that have issues with testing and availability which means they are the same states that have more people dying of COVID without ever getting tested.

The CDC reports show <5% difference between surveillance data and reconciled data. Factoring in unreported cases, they generally assume this is a statistical wash.

Also- Why the fuck is anybody taking any kind of health advice from Trump? He's one of the most unhealthy lookin fuckers I've ever seen....

If Trump put together a body building program, it's a shame to know half of you would read it like a bible. Buncha soon to be William Taft lookin ma'fuckers

What do you like to eat or drink? I would like to regulate it, so you can't have it =)

Do you believe the health experts?

Im more of the mind that we should address the source/root; like an obesity tax of 2k/year for any bmi over 28 unless lean body mass exceeds 88% of total weight
Next do IQ.

Honestly. Not trying to live in a world where I can't trust an "expert" in their field. And it would be an exhausting way of living to not trust experts" Why do that?

Your doctor- Well Joseph, that giant lump in your abdomen, turns out it's cancer, i'm sorry.

Joseph- HAH, yeah ok doc. Too bad I already know it's a small watermelon that has grown from the small black seed I accidently ingested a month ago...

Just to be clear, are we talking about the "experts" that copied all my homework in Chem 101, 102, O-Chem, Physics, and Biology while i was majoring in Bio and minoring in Chem, who required me to explain everything 10 to 20 different ways before they finally "got it" enough to pass exams with a C/C+ and absorb just enough "expertise" to barely pass the MCAT, or...which "experts" are we talking about here?
