You know what would resolve that issue entirely: start trending/reporting occurrence date, and stop trending/reporting recorded date. Recorded date is irrelevant. Occurrence date is relevant.
Recorded date is important to gauge the reporting cycle.
But, to your point, yeah. The ISDH actually has this more right than wrong. They show when the dates occurred when the deaths are reported. That's why they backdate some almost every day.
The CDC should have an F in the acronym.
