The director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told a congressional hearing Wednesday that some deaths from coronavirus have been discovered posthumously.
Robert Redfield responded to Rep. Harley Rouda's inquiry during the US House Oversight Committee discussion on the novel coronavirus response.
Rouda asked Redfield if it's possible that some flu patients may have been misdiagnosed and actually had coronavirus. He asked, "So we could have some people in the United States dying for what appears to be influenza when in fact it could be the coronavirus?"
Redfield replied that "some cases have actually been diagnosed that way in the United States today."

Here is the transcript of the discussion.
Rep. Harley Rouda: Without test kits, is it possible that those who have been susceptible to influenza might have been miscategorized as to what they actually had, is it quite possible that they actually had COVID-19?
CDC director Dr. Robert Redfield: The standard practice is the first thing you do is test for influenza, so if they had influenza they would be positive... "
HR: But only if they were tested? So they weren't tested, we don't know what they had?
RR: Correct.
HR: OK. And if somebody dies from influenza, are we doing postmortem testing to see whether it was influenza or whether it was COVID-19?
RR: There is a surveillance system of deaths from pneumonia, that the CDC has; it's not in every city, every state, every hospital.
HR: So we could have people in the United States dying for what appears to be influenza when in fact it could be the coronavirus or COVID-19?
RR: Some cases have actually been diagnosed that way in the United States today.
HR: Thank you.

US CDC Director Robert Redfield Admitted that Coronavirus Deaths Have Been Miscategorized as Flu

The US has been lying all along.
Robert Redfield, CDC director, testifying to Congress, today admitted that virus deaths have been miscategorised as the flu.
He also stated that the standard practice has been to first test people for the flu and, if the test is positive, they stop there. They don’t test for the coronavirus.
So Japan and Taiwan were correct. Many of the US deaths attributed to the flu were actually from the coronavirus.
One Senator asked Redfield if post-mortems were performed to learn the cause of death, and he stated that such were done, and they revealed mis-diagnoses.
The infections and deaths have been knowingly mis-categorised for months, and the CDC ‘strongly’ recommended that hospitals not test for the virus except as a last resort. It is not an accident that the US has no reliable tests. They don’t want to test. Blame everything on the flu.
And now all meetings and discussions on the virus are classified, and all public information must be first cleared through the White House.
