You aren’t calling out the reason. The point is to obscure the data.

We recorded a considerable drop in hospitalizations today. The new HHS hospitalization dataset had been tracking much higher than our numbers; today, it experienced a precipitous and unrealistic decline. Short story: The data remains mushy since the CDC—>HHS changeover. pic.twitter.com/907rNsK96h

> @JasonSalemi has more on the HHS problems and we’re in the midst of a deeper analysis that we’ll publish next week. The bottom line is that the HHS data provided thus far is unreliable day-to-day. HHS needs to communicate what’s happening. https://t.co/JJwHDNrYWo
