How is reporting on an "unexpected 40% increase in ‘all cause deaths’ in 2021" from an actual government dataset NOT journalism?
The DoD at the very least admitted there is a data corruption issue that went unnoticed for 5 years!
Is your position that the citizenry should not expect a standard of quality for government medical data?
Had nobody reported on it would the error have persisted if that is indeed the case?
Without coverage there is no way of even asking these questions let alone answering them.
- shlant 5y agoI don't think it's accurate to say that the OP or your sources are just "reporting on an "unexpected 40% increase in ‘all cause deaths’ in 2021" from an actual government dataset". All the links are clearly coming to specific conclusions (which align with the bias of the source) that could not be reasonably made considering the data they are referring to. This is on top of the highly charged language and providing no link to the source they are making their claims based on. I am all for reporting on possible errors in data, but what is going on here is much more than that.
