LOL! local google educated epidemiologist declares the professional testing services numbers inaccurate because he doesn't have enough rows on the in house abacus. Same epidemiologist declares the best course of action is to assume the ostrich position as the local ground is very sandy, therefore breathable. Best stick to golf strokes by hole with that abacus. And yes, a highly infectious respiratory disease within a very closed environment for a very long time should infect a very high proportion of the population, but then again, check on that medical research you have done in the past to be sure.
For all you google experts. . . Testing sites counts tests and publish test results. That's their job, they are professionals, but being run by humans, of which you are a member, they like you, make an occasional error. However, they being professionals, are much less likely to make a mistake than you are.
Hospitals count patients, That's their job, they are professionals, but being run by humans, of which you are a member, they like you, make an occasional error. However, they being professionals, are much less likely to make a mistake than you are.
So, wrong or inaccurate, nice ostrich position. each source has a different reporting point of view, and the two views have different interpretations, so learn the difference and respect their professional services. You can certainly decline medical services if you think the test results are accurate enough for your judgement.
Biases Make People Vulnerable to Misinformation Spread by Social Media - Scientific American just might be written by researchers with more expertise and information than you, but don't let facts and researchers influence your control over your 2,000 sq ft kingdom.
Monty Hall(?) "Lets make a deal" math problem, -> Contestant pick a door of 3. . . Contestant picks door, Monty offers a choice to switch, do you? If you can't explain the best probabilistic answer and why, you might want to think about your ability to criticize/judge testing counts versus patient counts.
You can go back and read some of my/our posts explaining the differences and why, as coachk does a medical system data analytics as a professional, trying to make a difference in your life's outcome, and for the doctors and the state and federal reporting, and the system design with work flows to get the data correct for the best outcome if you need medical services.
So, dismissing professional data and professional health services as inaccurate or wrong, because you asked your neighbor, a nurse, or a practicing doctor who is an expert in patient diagnostics, please, next time you are at the doctor, and he goes over your results, please volunteer that you know better than his education and experience. He will be all ears. . .
