1. Donald Trump, his key backer Peter Thiel, and Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House Covid coordinator are directly linked to nationwide under-reporting of Covid-19 cases and deaths. We learned this morning the data was flawed. https://twitter.com/ZevShalev/status/1319962904469360640">https://twitter.com/ZevShalev...
2. The under-reporting of COVID-19 cases and deaths follow a decision by Dr. Deborah Birx to privatize COVID-19 data collection from the CDC to a Pittsburgh company that uses a platform built by Peter Thiel& #39;s Palantir. Thiel is close to Trump. https://twitter.com/ZevShalev/status/1310157231548178433?s=20">https://twitter.com/ZevShalev...
3. Birx decided to jettison the existing CDC reporting system for COVID-19 which had been developed over 15 years, and replaced it with a platform operated by a Pittsburgh-based private company, TeleTracking. https://twitter.com/ZevShalev/status/1319980968350973953?s=20">https://twitter.com/ZevShalev...
4. And now we& #39;re learning that Peter Thiel& #39;s data company Palantir developed TeleTracking& #39;s platform. Thiel holds a substantial stake in Facebook, backed Trump& #39;s 2016 campaign and is close to Erik Prince. https://www.vox.com/recode/2020/7/16/21323458/palantir-ipo-hhs-protect-peter-thiel-cia-intelligence">https://www.vox.com/recode/20...
5. I warned of the perils of Thiel& #39;s encroachment into COVID-19 surveillance back in April, after exposing his ties to an Israeli based surveillance start-up Carbyne. https://twitter.com/ZevShalev/status/1252967393946730496?s=20">https://twitter.com/ZevShalev...
6. In summary, the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths are being under-reported after a decision by Dr. Deborah Birx to privatize COVID-19 data collection from the CDC to a Pittsburgh company that uses a platform built by Peter Thiel& #39;s Palantir.
