More Statistical Fraud: Florida, Texas, Colorado – All Caught Inflating COVID Cases and Deaths

It’s long been suspected that certain countries and US states have been padding their statistics regarding both cases and deaths attributed to coronavirus.

Only yesterday, it was revealed how UK health officials have been ‘double counting’ COVID deaths through creative administrative record keeping.

More evidence also reveals how similar shady practices are being employed by state officials across America.

In Texas, health officials were forced to remove some 3,000 reported COVID ‘cases’ from their pandemic dashboard after it was revealed that “probable cases” were being counted in the totals – even though those people had never tested positive for the coronavirus. Emmy & Murrow award winning Fox 4 Dallas Evening News Anchor Steve Eager reported:

Chris Van Deusen, a spokesman for the state health agency, said to the Austin American-Statesman:

“Since we report confirmed cases on our dashboard, we have removed 3,484 previously reported probable cases from the statewide and Bexar County totals.”

A much worse case of statistical fraud was exposed in Florida this week, after it was revealed how Orlando health officials had fraudulently reported a 98% positive rate for their pool of tested persons. At the time, no one questioned this incredible claim, but once exposed, officials were then forced to admit that that positivity rate might really be only 9.4%.

This exposure came right after the state’s health officials were telling the press it had a “record-breaking day” with 15,000 new coronavirus cases discovered.

Florida’s COVID fraud was unearthed after journalists from one local affiliate, FOX 35 News, who actually checked the data and then reached out to a few of the 50 labs included in the testing batch which was showing a near 100% positivity rate.

Watch this report from Orlando:

A similar inflation of positive case numbers was discovered at Orlando’s Veterans Administration (VA), which a positivity rate of 76%. Again, it was a local affiliate, FOX 35 News, which inquired and reported that on the positivity rate there was really only 6%.

In Colorado, health officials were forced to lower their official COVID death count by 25% after officials were forced to admit that some of the alleged COVID victims had actually died of other causes.

Unfortunately, these are not isolated incidents. Back in April, health officials in Pennsylvania had to remove 200 “COVID deaths” from the state’s fatality count after doctors admitted that they had never actually tested the patients who died.

All this leaves the public wondering whether such fraudulent practices are being carried out in most states, and countries too.

US Coronavirus Task Force head Dr. Deborah Birx had previously hinted that the real coronavirus “case” and death count may be off by up to 25%.

All of this is crucial when considering how all of the federal and state governments seemingly half-baked policies for supposedly stopping the spread of coronavirus – Lockdowns, ad hoc ‘social distancing’ rules, mandatory masks, mass testing and contact tracing, school closures, travel bans and quarantines, and of course, the mad rush to roll-out Big Pharma’s experimental coronavirus vaccine – are all based on what now seems to be a false perception that COVID-19 is a ‘pandemic’ which requires unprecedented mitigation laws and regulations.
