- Hospitalizations have the first Week-over-Week (Wow) rise since late July
- Reported Deaths DOWN 162 WoW. Still a LOT of legacy death laundering (very old deaths counted as new)

Graph 2: COVID ICU Census vs. Deaths (7DayAvg) vs. Daily Detected Cases
***Still seeing large backlog dumps of old deaths
- 7-Day-Avg Reported Deaths down 75 WoW
- ICUs keep dropping
- "Cases" from mass/forced college testing + case definition changes = artificial increase

Graph 3: Daily Tests + Detected Cases + Case Positivity
***Still don't see how so many tests are being done daily. Who are the people getting tested and why?
- Test Positivity down 0.5%
- Tests up 110k WoW
- Detected Cases up 214 WoW (0.2% Positivity)

Graph 4: Coronavirus - Census for Hospitalizations vs. ICUs vs. Ventilators
- Hosps up 143 W-o-W
- ICUs DOWN 119 W-o-W
- Vents Down 119 W-o-W
*Vents far lower than prior low point

Graphs 5: Daily Estimated Cases vs. Deaths
Tests shot up to almost 1.1M, so I changed the threshold to 1.2M for daily tests in the formula.
Somehow we're testing more people despite less COVID-Like Illness (CLI).
If we were testing 500k, we'd feasibly see ~24k "cases."

Hello, @m_scribe and @guardian , this article has false claims about Flu, CoV2, and RAV, which should be corrected.
None of the 3 are rising, and the CoV2 weekly changes are out of date. You gave the weekly changes for week-ending 12/30, but CDC updates through week-ending 1/6.
All 3 can be seen declining no later than 12/30.
Will you fix the article based on the above, or is there a better method for requesting a formal correction?
Sure, I will respond genuinely on the basis you are asking earnestly.
First, I think EVERYTHING in the screenshot is bad:
1) “Ritual and solidarity” are brainwashing techniques. Fooling/coercing people into accepting and then propagating a measure is dastardly to begin with
2) Doing that with a measure that is ineffective is downright evil, because it brainwashes people unknowingly into a self-harming act both directly (unsanitary, dehumanizing, social detriment, etc) and indirectly (increased exposure due to false sense of security)

3) Nothing wrong with people protecting themselves, but community masking with any material was not protective for the individual and especially not the community. It was always a lie even if Zeynep truly believed in masks personally
