Secondly, no the CDC did NOT "revise its death numbers". But a bunch of posts on social media- which have subsequently been taken down and which were linked to QAnon- made that erroneous claim. And no. the CDC saying that 6% of COVID deaths had no co-morbidities is not the same thing as saying COVID didn't kill 94% of those people.

And yes, our information about this brand new pandemic has been changing rapidly as we've discovered more and more, but it's INCREDIBLY contagious. That's why we went into lockdown. And pointing to the fact that lockdown is working as a reason why COVID "isn't that bad" is insane.

And by the way, the FDA revoked its emergency use authorization for HCQ for a reason. Several in fact:



My god you are a walking misinformation post. You fall for every single piece of politically motivated misinformation and just come back here and parrot those talking points without ever having verified them with non-partisan sources.

And it shows.
Shut up Andraste.
