- Trump administration officials sent states weekly COVID-19 reports
- Confidential but often leaked reports painted a more dire picture of the pandemic than officials painted in White House briefings
- President Biden pledged transparency and to release weekly reports to the public
- The first previously ‘hidden’ set of reports was released by the HHS on Thursday, and announced in a tweet from the White House COVID-19 data coordinator
UK Daily Mail: For months, the Trump administration sent weekly updates to state officials that revealed how bad COVID-19 really was in their jurisdictions, but told them the reports were confidential communications.
Following on President Biden’s promise of transparency, the same reports were unsealed and publicly released for the first time on Thursday.
Arizona, South Carolina and California are the nation’s worst hotspots, the report reveals. Each saw between more than 750 new infections per 100,000 residents last week.
The new reports reveal a national map that is still mostly in the red – meaning 200 or more people are dying per capita in a week in most counties.
It’s been a dismal month for South Carolina, which has reported 27,388 new infections in the past week, according to Johns Hopkins University.
The state hit record high case and death rates the week prior, and today confirmed the nation’s first case of the more infectious, potentially vaccine-resistant South African coronavirus variant.
Pennsylvania joined Arizona as the two states with the highest one-week death tolls between January 16 and January 22. Each saw 15.1 or more new fatalities for every 100,000 people.
The White House expressed cautious optimism that the pandemic may be plateauing in the US on Wednesday, but also warned that the improvements are delicate. read more

Also look that the states, including the vilified Blue States, administered virtually all of their ‘first doses’ 20M out of 40M where 40M represents our known inventory of our two does regimen. It’s not like they were Israel who was given 20M doses, enough to cover their entire population. The states were only given enough to cover 6% of their population and had to come up w/their own rationing policies.
Oh, if only New York and California could be more like Israel. Uh … sure, we are the Palestinians.
Unabated, it’s exponential growth rate…27,000 this week so 27,000 x 27,000 = so many it’s unbelievable…so next week it’s so many it’s unb lievable x so many it’s unbelievable = end of his humanity in region…..it’s a bioweapon remember that, the flu virus is how it’s distributed.
as a bioweapon to depopulate enemy battlefield is a total failure, just look the numbers, 400k deaths over a 350 millions people is a bit over 0.001% so you would need over a thousand years to kill them all…. but as a bioweapon to crashdown economy work very well.
@Adrian2MiL18 Downplaying the death toll of the Bio-weapon along the lines of the “Q” script you seem to be quoting, only makes it more effective.
Give it another two years, then Recompute the tally, the death toll might be more to your liking…It’s 447,119 as of now in the USA….This weapon is active as long as it’s dispensable, and protested by the minion’s promoting no mask rallies, and making videos about empty hospitals…..This event is wrapped up in Hoax’s and misinformation, especially where it came from, how did it target particular countries, and who ordered it, apparently with impunity, without blowback or deeper investigation…..

Im Awake…. I’m not downplaying the death toll but numbers are numbers and don’t have feelings and should be analyzed pragmatically
and when after two years you “recompute the tally” don’t forget add to their calculations the population replacement rate and demographic growth when you “recompute” it…
Some kind interconnected citizens organization totally independent who check data in hospitals and clinics should be established for separately verify these numbers are right.
“The new reports reveal a national map that is still mostly in the red – meaning 200 or more people are dying per capita in a week in most counties.” Wow! that is alarming! Are you sure of that figure?
