“As caught by @michael_hoerger,
CDC just modified their dashboard to make Covid transmission look lower on November 18, 2024.
‘The underlying data are identical. However, the Y axis is rescaled to make everything seem lower.’”

(My hot take on what happened, and where things are headed. Prelude to the final 🧵in the "How does it end" series)…
…No country can expect sustained 3% growth, if 3% of its workforce drops out every year.
There is no path forward - for the US or any other country - without addressing this. Repeated covid infections are not a sustainable situation.”
November 5, 2024: “A reminder that ~800,000 Americans have been killed by COVID since the Biden-Harris administration began. Tens of millions have Long C0VlD. And C0VlD spread more in September 2024 than any point in 2020. They refuse to do anything to stop the spread, even as thousands die weekly.”
“Hold up you’re telling me that by the 3rd time I get COVID, there’s a 1 in 2.5 chance I develop life-changing chronic illness ⁉️⁉️
Uhhh CDC wtf?? Y’all were on TV every night in 2021, where you at with this?! Did you fuck up?? (1/2)” Thread:
“I am concerned that the sense of urgency about COVID-19 appears to have faded. The disease has not been discussed during the election season, even though it is an ongoing and developing public health threat. I believe this is a dangerous mindset. The reality is that COVID-19 remains a unique and deadly threat for many people — it is not just another respiratory virus, and should not be treated as such by our leaders.”
“If you want to point at any other driving cause besides COVID, to be credible it will need to:
- Be new in 2020, pause until late 2021 then resume
- Result in historically massive increases
- Be timed perfectly in sync with the waves and lulls of COVID, for the last 4-5 years.” 🧵
“A former senior advisor on SARS has accused the World Health Organisation (WHO) of covering up its own evidence proving the airborne transmission of COVID-19, since the earliest days of the global pandemic. “
“Todd Datz, Managing Director of Media Relations & Public Affairs for @HarvardChanSPH, interviewed @CDCDirector @DrMandyCohen
‘...on COVID lessons and restoring trust in public health’.”
Notice CDC is waiting until after the election to resume gathering vital public health info on Covid.
“Nov 1, the @CMSgov will require hospitals to report info about flu, COVID-19, and RSV. Read about how these data are key to maintain situational awareness and address current patient health and safety needs.”
The disease that must not be acknowledged by media…
“Covid-19 has two walls. The Memorial Wall for those killed by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and the ‘wall of silence’ when questions are asked. Though #Covid-19 regularly trends on social media in posts by the ‘Covid-aware’ – researchers in the field, medics who see the impact, scientifically literate lay persons, or people who are clinically vulnerable or have been harmed by the infection – for some time there has been criticism that political leaders and mainstream journalists are inexplicably stonewalling.”
“So one can only conclude that the CDC purposefully redesigned their COVID graphic to downplay the severity and reduce attention paid to the —by far— number one cause of death by infectious disease.
Why? What purpose does this suppression serve?”
