CDC bad at math: Calls 0.1% "Less than 10 percent"
The federal propaganda arm has come out and issued a startling truth.

Translation to the OP title: The CDC lied for over a year for political purposes while ignoring the science.

Not to be a smart *** but that only applies to people with common sense. Look how many people here even post and brag about taking the shot when they bothered to do no research considering it’s totally experimental and yet they still took it so unfortunately no it’s not that obvious.

it's closer to less than 1%, hence the deception...

Centers for Deceptive Crap and Propaganda?
the cdc has a flu reporting network called FluSurv-NET. this is a number of places scattered about the US that is "representative" of the entire country. the cdc gets their flu numbers every year from this network, and they make projections and estimates from these numbers. in 2019 they tested 1.3 million for seasonal flu. these are folks with fever that are sick enough to visit a doctor or emergency room (within that network) only about 19% or 242k actually had the flu of those, 24k had to be admitted to hospital. of those, about 2400 died, or 1% of the positive flu cases. from these numbers, the cdc says between 30-50 million americans had the flu, and the death rate was 0.05%? somebody check my math.

It's even closer to half a percent...
I'll leave the next "closer" for the next guy...

I've seen defense attorneys use this statistical lie. They show you documents that say the accuracy of the procedure is +/- 0.01 as tested at the 0.10 level. They show you a study that says that at the 0.02 level the answer could be 0.01, 0.02, or 0.03. That is true. They then make the leap that at the 0.10 level the accuracy is +/- 50%. That is a lie. The accuracy tested is +/- 0.01 at the 0.10 level. It is really +/- 10%.
This technique is a way to deliberately use statistics to lie to the uninformed. Last edited by Scota4570; 05-12-2021 at 4:47 PM.. |

That implies 1.3M out of the entire population. Instead they say 242k / 1.3M x 330M = 61M people had the flu. But that ignores the self-selection bias of only people sick with flu go to a doctor. so the correct calcuation is 242k / 330M = 0.073% even assume the 242K only represent 50% of those who have it, that still only gets to 0.15% or TLDR version.. 2,400 total people died of flu... representing XX% of actual flu deaths. I posit XX% >= 90% Last edited by Libertarian777; 05-27-2021 at 11:08 AM.. |

It's a good thing that the evil western white math isn't being taught these days. The upcoming generation won't know the difference and will believe their supreme leaders. They simply won't have enough education to question what they are being told.
