They only missed it by 850,000 or so


The New York Times has issued a correction after an article incorrectly reported that far more children were hospitalized with COVID-19 than recorded data shows, and major changes have been made to an article about vaccinations for children.
In the original article, "A New Vaccine Strategy for Children: Just One Dose, For Now," written by science and health reporter Apoorva Mandavilli, it was stated that "nearly 900,000 children have been hospitalized" since the pandemic began, reports Fox News.
The corrected version states that "more than 63,000 children were hospitalized with [COVID]-19 from August 2020 to October 2021."
The article also incorrectly described actions that regulators in Sweden and Denmark took, and was incorrect about the timing of an important FDA meeting.
"An earlier version of this article incorrectly described actions taken by regulators in Sweden and Denmark," the Times said in its correction. "They have halted use of the Moderna vaccine in children; they have not begun offering single doses. The article also misstated the number of [COVID] hospitalizations in U.S. children. It is more than 63,000 from August 2020 to October 2021, not 900,000 since the beginning of the pandemic. In addition, the article misstated the timing of an F.D.A. meeting on the authorization of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children. It is later this month, not next week."
Take away several major errors and it was a well written and thoroughly researched article.
Trust the media and trust the government

Hey Race you think it's easy keeping the reporting of numbers within 12 standard deviations of the actual number?

You're free to cite the hundreds of times that the NYTimes printed misinformation that benefited a narrative of Trump's. -
The Dazzler is so far in with his racist lies and misogyny, he has to double/triple/quadruple down on the absurd.
Kobe is in the same boat.
