Wisconsin DHS Has No Idea What the Actual Test Results Are

Stunning incompetence – and that’s the kind interpretation. The other interpretation is that it is a deliberate manipulation of the data.

Not only does this mean the Evers Administration does not have an accurate count of how many tests are coming back negative. It also means the administration does not know how many tests are being processed each day, and that is a key metric in determining how the state is progressing in its efforts to control the spread of coronavirus.

    If this was Walker doing this, local libs would not be quiet.

    Pat is also shockingly silent.

    Queue Foust coming in here asking if any of us knows someone personally who has contracted the KungFlu, and if we know anyone who has died from it.

     

    He is an interested dichotomy in Liberal Privilege.  He will preach to us about facts, science, numbers, and when presented with facts, science, and numbers that don’t agree with his small world-view, then bring out the heart-feelings.  Such a fucking tool.

    MacIver doesn’t even put a name on their stories any more?

    I was right,  there’s the Liberal Privilege on full display.  Someone snaps their fingers, and little foust shows up and start humping the carpet.

    jjf,

    Because that is real issue here, isn’t it?

    Pathetic.

    Well, a real journalist would’ve dug into the story and listed which local jurisdictions weren’t reporting the full numbers.  With that in hand, you could put some limits on what “not accurate” might really mean.

    Or we could just breathlessly report and blog whatever will fire up the base, right?

    Jjf,

    The WI DHS should be doing that….its their job.

    But you are running interference for disgusting liberal policy.

    Awful. Just awful.

    As long as we’re wandering around blindly with DHS……

    Does anyone know with certainty what “confirmed cases” actually means?  One positive test?  One plus a positive second?  Antibody test?  Symptomatic?  Are these the el-cheapo CVS tests which show false positives about half the time?

    No news source explains it; one wonders if they ever asked Abortion Barbie Palm, or if she gave them a meaningless word-salad response, or maybe pulled a Jiffy and asked what time it is on Mars.

    pulled a Jiffy and asked what time it is on Mars.

    Sorry, that was incomplete and doesn’t do Jiffy justice.

    Please add “………if there are three oranges showing” to the above.

    Conflation and sensationalism, tools of Liberal Privilege.

    Well, Dad29, you could ask Palm, but it might appear disrespectful or un-serious if you call her “Abortion Barbie.”  And so you looked for definitions and explanations, and didn’t find any?  Or are you just throwing Foo-Foo Dust?
