I'm sick of hearing about death it's kind of a definitive state either your dead or about dead?

This report does not restore any of my recently lost confidence in the CDC. Did they really say, "about 17" and "about 4"? Don't they know?

The CDC gives defined death for Marion and Lake counties every report that comes from the online rag always state ABOUT very poor reporting.

Exactly my thoughts ! Really now, about ---- cases, about ---- deaths, how can you have "about" 4 deaths, or "about" 12 deaths ? Does that mean one or more are only "partly" dead ? Is that like being "slightly pregnant" ? ! You'd think by now, with all the shots and all the boosting going on in this community, there would never be another death ! (FROM covid that is)

I don't think cases reporting can be adequate nowadays since we all have at home rapid tests readily available. Everyone I know that got the latest strain this summer never reported it, there was nowhere to report it! Maybe we should stop talking about it?

I believe the reported numbers are significantly low. My wife and I tested positive (home test) within the last 6 weeks and “health officials” never learned of it. Just a bad cold equivalent, but still multiple positive tests.

Default Home Covid test kits

I was told by an immediate care center nurse even though I home tested and was negative for Covid , the tests kits are 50% reliable . So I was retested by them and also negative. Didn’t our government spend billions on these home tests kits ?
