hipaa, nonstandard data recording systems, time, confounds of preexisting medical conditions, scattershot testing, and the overall saturation of the healthcare system are going to make that signal more or less invisible.
We are talking about the confirmed positive cases, these people are all potential spreaders and are supposed to be closely monitored. This is a standard CDC playbook (lots of people I’ll, find out what’s common to them). The list you gave, if true, is total incompetence of e CDC to a level which has never been demonstrated before - in fact, the CDC has generally done well with their playbook even if it was a couple of weeks late (and we’re 10 weeks since I heard from a friend who works with the CDC that they’re watching it)
