As we reopen you are seeing a lot of states highlight the fact they haven't seen an increased bump in infections, despite the fact that usually takes 2 weeks after infection.
But of course, if you do see a bump, you can always go the route of Florida and Georgia and simply lie about the data. The creator of Florida's database resigned because, according to her, she refused to doctor the data to make the outbreak seem better than it is. Florida is also trying to modify how they capture infections and death so the number is lower. That is inline with the supposed WH pressure on the CDC to modify how they count the numbers so they come out lower.
Georgia, meanwhile, is straight up assuming their population was educated in...well...Georgia. They produced a map that showed clearly that infections were declining. The only problem is they changed the dates on the x-axis so anyone just looking at the graph came away optimistic, anyone actually reading the graph was confused why some days in April came both before and after some days in May.
in short, if the decision you made wasn't backed by the data and it may lead to many more Americans dying, simply lie about the data! What was that outrage again about China?
