IHME Tries to Rescue Its Credibility

You will recall that the U of Washington's IHME had made wildly-overblown "estimates" of US Covid deaths in spring of 2020.  

Those estimates had to be reduced to reflect reality over time.

So now IHME is making a desperate attempt to recover its credibility.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is reviewing an estimate of global COVID-19 deaths from the University of Washington that is more than double the official count to determine if the CDC figures should be revised, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said at a Friday press briefing. 

The analysis by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) pegs the global death toll at nearly 6.9 million and the U.S. count at more than 900,000. ...

900K is nearly double the CDC figure, which is bloated by an unknown number of deaths attributed to the Chinese Communist/Fauci Flu which were actually from other causes.

Experts.  Yup.
