Coronavirus case numbers appeared astoundingly good in Bethesda, Montgomery County and the state of Maryland on Thursday and Friday. A little too good, given that cases are trending upward across the country and the world. In fact, Maryland's coronavirus website is inaccurately showing zero new cases for Thursday and Friday, November 25 and 26, 2021. It turns out that the Maryland Department of Health took Thursday and Friday off, and did not provide accurate data for new cases of Covid-19 during this period.
The failure to inform the public is remarkable, given the firm government hand regarding masks, school and business closures, lockdowns, and vaccinations by Maryland officials over the last two years, and the announcement of the new Omnicron variant. According to The Washington Post, Virginia and the District of Columbia also did not report case numbers for Thursday and Friday. The Post (in its print edition, at least) did not report that Maryland would also fail to do so, however.

So you're outraged over something that Virginia did, too?
Maryland is one of the few states that reports data 7 days a week (outside of a couple of major holidays, of course). Most states report just 5 days a week even when it isn't Thanksgiving.
Cases are useless fearmongering points based upon fraudulent diagnostic testing methods. They are meaningless because neither the PCR nor antibody diagnostics can determine infectivity or presence of existing immunity.
