HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Pennsylvania’s Department of Health has reduced the number of COVID-19 vaccine doses that had been administered by about 500,000, saying the numbers were duplicates.
The figures, released Friday evening without explanation, also showed an increase of about 60,000 in the number of people who are counted as fully vaccinated.
The numbers include 66 of Pennsylvania’s 67 counties. They do not include Philadelphia, which is its own vaccine jurisdiction.
For all 67 counties, the percentage of people 18 and over who are vaccinated was 61%, up slightly with the change in data.
Asked about the changed figures, a Department of Health spokesperson said agency staff had been working to link both first and second doses to individual residents.
As a result, they were removing duplicated data that resulted from providers using software that did not include a unique patient identifier or uploading duplicate data, or people getting first and second doses from different providers.
The data now more accurately reflects the number of people who have received the first of a two-dose vaccine, the spokesperson said.
Friday’s data showed just under 11.3 million total vaccine doses, down from Thursday’s figure of 11.8 million. It also showed over 5.5 million people fully vaccinated, up 64,000 from Thursday’s figure.
Transmission rates in Pennsylvania have remained stable after a long decline during the spring as more people got vaccinated.
Nothing they are telling us is the truth a priori.
So, we don't know what percent have been jabbed once or multiple, because they have a strong vested interest in making the numbers high to please their Schwabian Globalist masters.
"Yes, Master Schwab, we have inoculated huge percentages of the sheep, just as you commanded! Have mercy, Master Schwab, we did as you wished, really!"
They can't even keep basic infrastructure up to par. You think they can count actual vaccines taken accurately? My wife deals with government daily in IL, WI, MO, MN and IA. There are certainly some competent public works officials/engineers, but those who oversee/budget what they're doing are absolute morons (county board & municipal gov). It's why we have bridges collapse and roads drive like shit.
I don't trust the math on vaccinations at all. But I believe it's about 40-50% right now anecdotally here in IL. Most definitely inflated nationwide. It's a number impossible to verify. I have zero clue if there's one doctor just pumping out CDC vaccination records under the table. Who knows, maybe I am vaccinated...lol.
