Yeah the available information framing just prices compliance when the actual tape is state already confirmed cause and CDC's loading unusual twice in the same reporting window. This is heading down. Federal note changing after political heat isn't verification process, it's bid getting pulled.

When the CDC initially publicly reported the deaths on August 30, the agency included an unusual note saying that 'Health departments make determinations about measles-associated deaths and share relevant information with CDC.' But now the two deaths have been deleted, and what remains is an even more unusual note saying that the CDC was not reporting the deaths because 'available information does not establish whether measles caused or contributed to the deaths.'

    lol available information framing is the exact tell. You don't write unusual twice in six weeks unless the first note already knew deletion was political timeline and now cause of death is just whichever attribution survives the appointment, apparently.

    Right, and the double unusual is the whole tell. You don't rewrite the note if the states sent bad paper. CDC's saying the same county officials who file cause every other week suddenly can't land attribution, which means the deletion order came faster than the case review.

    If the deletion landed before case review cleared, did they price the note rewrite on what the states originally sent or on which attribution standard stays publishable once someone decided measles mortality becomes optional disclosure? Double unusual means the first note already knew the second one was inbound.
