⚠️Scoop—MOTHER OF GOD—Just got this leak from CDC-insider source—it seems #COVID variants worse than CDC has been admitting. The new highly evasive #BQ1 & #BQ11 sub variants are surging over 11%—but CDC has not shared it yet! Here is what will be posted soon (left) 🆚 current. 🧵 pic.twitter.com/BKyBgZwe86— Eric Feigl-Ding (@DrEricDing) October 14, 2022

Feel weird sharing a twitter post, but this guy has credentials. Fucking hate the CDC.

Sorry I've been posting a lot about covid lately, I'm immunocompromised and people ignoring covid has been driving me insane.

EDIT: here's a new source confirming this https://www.cbsnews.com/news/covid-variant-bq-1-omicron-cdc-estimates/

    That's a fair assessment, but uhhh this is just a tweet about rising variants that the CDC isn't appropriately warning us about (that were already marked for concern previously). He might not be untrustworthy for opinions, but this is just... numbers. Are there instances of him falsifying data?

      He's sensationalist, alarmist, misleading, and inaccurate. He is not to be trusted.

      You made me look at the next tweet and now I wish I hadn't....

      2) I cannot describe just how mad I am at this disaster. #BQ1 and #BQ11 are two of the most evasive variants known to date. And CDC seems to have been holding onto this data? Can it be true? Why did this data have to leak to me from insider sources? It’s so bad.

      Okay, I'll parse it.

      I cannot describe just how mad I am at this disaster.

      Is that a huge lie? He's going to get mad likes! He is not to be trusted.

      #BQ1 and #BQ11 are two of the most evasive variants known to date.

      How accurate is that statement. He is not to be trusted.

      And CDC seems to have been holding onto this data?

      How true is that? He is not to be trusted.

      Can it be true?

      That's a hedge. Why did he hedge, eh?

      Why did this data have to leak to me from insider sources?

      What am i looking at exactly? He is not to be trusted.

      It’s so bad.

      Mad likes! He is not to be trusted.

      Must I do this for all other tweets? There are seven more. I said I will die on this hill. And damn the fucking torpedeos - I will! Is that really what you want?

        🙄 he's literally been right to voice concern over everything I've seen him voice concern over but I guess it's sensationalist to express outrage over what is clearly a slow moving train wreck of a pandemic response unless it develops ebola-like mortality overnight

          Well, there's no way for me to error check what's happening in your mind. Still it's worth remembering that he’s sensationalist, alarmist, misleading, and inaccurate. And he is not to be trusted.

          The OP didn't take me up my offer to parse the other seven tweets. To be honest I do not I want to slog through the other seven tweets for you. You seem to want to try to prove something to me about him but I have no idea what you're ranting about. He's garbage.

                Ditto, shit reads like climate denialism, "someone is talking about climate apocalypse? What an alarmist sensationalist nerd, the ice caps are still here, they are not to be trusted"

                Disengaging now frienderino
