Day 161: Stolen Corona

The Federalist reports on an alleged coronavirus faker, Dr. Joseph Fair, a science contributor to NBC News. The notion that he faked a hospitalization for clicks is somewhat far-fetched, as is the idea that all his coronavirus symptoms were actually something else, merely because he has never tested positive for COVID-19, either by PCR or in later antibody tests. Nevertheless, failing to test positive for an actual case of COVID-19 is far more frequent than faking hospitalization or misdiagnosis.

Vox talks a bit about the testing situation from a more numerate perspective.

Massachusetts cases are up a fifth of a percentage point today.
