In the following video a German doctor describes the way a single person who tests positive for COVID-19 may be counted as multiple cases in the official statistics.
Anyone with symptoms who tests positive must quarantine himself until he tests negative. Those who are anxious to return to work present themselves for testing every week. Each positive result is reported to the relevant agency, which then anonymizes the result, causing every instance to be counted as a new individual case of the Wuhan Coronavirus in official government statistics.

Video transcript:
00:00 | Yes, my dear friends, patients, acquaintances, | |
00:03 | and also all those who do not want to hear it: Here is Katrin Kessler from Hassloch | |
00:07 | again with a very short piece of information | |
00:10 | on a very interesting email correspondence with the Robert Koch Institute. | |
00:17 | So it is actually like that, if someone really had Corona, | |
00:22 | I am, I emphasize that every time, sorry, very, very sorry | |
00:26 | for everyone who had it really, really bad. Fortunately, I had no personal contact | |
00:31 | with anyone who had Corona and died from it, | |
00:35 | maybe because of my one-sided perception. | |
00:39 | I’m more talking about those who came here to my practice | |
00:44 | who had almost nothing, were asymptomatic or | |
00:47 | had slight loss of taste. | |
00:50 | If these people want to go back to work, they mostly have to have | |
00:54 | a negative Corona test. That’s why they come to my practice regularly | |
00:59 | and are then tested again anew. And it is almost, almost always | |
01:05 | that these people are positive for up to 12 weeks. | |
01:10 | And when these patients come weekly, a message goes out every time | |
01:14 | from the laboratory to the health department, | |
01:18 | and from the health department, rendered anonymous, to the Robert Koch Institute. | |
01:22 | And the Robert Koch Institute has confirmed this part, that these anonymous reports, | |
01:27 | from someone who may have come to be tested for the sixth time, | |
01:31 | enter the media as a new infection every time. | |
01:37 | …go into the media… Now you can probably ask yourself the question; | |
01:41 | oh, how are these infection numbers to be assessed | |
01:45 | that are presented to us in the Tagesschau [Daily News] and the mainstream media? | |
01:49 | If really, probably the vast majority, | |
01:53 | are retested after corona infections | |
01:56 | until they test negative, otherwise arrive and are counted each time as a new infection | |
02:01 | by the Robert Koch Institute. | |
02:05 | Yep. This is a question I’d like to throw into the room. |
