How do they do it? Easy. The CDC is the world's preeminent manipulator of data. In this case, they decided to include cases where the patient's death appeared to be brought on by the flu (not swine flu, just the flu)(and 'appeared' to be brought on, as opposed to being directly caused)!! And just like that the count increases 300%.
And by the way, these numbers are not an actual count. No, the CDC is estimating how many are ill. They have a nifty computer program and all they do is throw in some numbers and out comes the estimate they want. Amazing.
Also of interest: the CDC says 22 million people have been sickened by swine flu. This number has about the same credibility as the above number. But if you accept their number of deaths, it comes to less than one-half of one per cent of those who have been ill. Some pandemic!
Also of interest: the November 9th edition of the American Free Press reports that CBS news claims that the number of swine flu cases has been grossly exaggerated. "Only one percent to three percent of suspected cases have actually turned out to be the H1N1 virus. When samples of patients were actually tested, it turned out that the overwhelming majority -- nearly 86 percent in some states -- did not even have a more common strain of the flu. Instead they had a cold." (!!!)
Does anyone remember the days when the Soviet Union political bureau set a goal of manufacturing so many widgets under the five year plan? And before long, the numbers would be produced to prove the leaders right, even to be geniuses.
Does this practice sound at all familiar to this country's experience with swine flu?
The CDC said there was going to be a pandemic, and, by golly, here are the numbers to prove it!
