President Donald Trump on Jan. 3 questioned the accuracy of the official nationwide CCP virus cases and death counts, saying that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has exaggerated the numbers.
“The number of cases and deaths of the China Virus is far exaggerated in the United States because of [the CDC’s] ridiculous method of determination compared to other countries, many of whom report, purposely, very inaccurately and low,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “‘When in doubt, call it Covid.’ Fake News!”
