Or the data can be proven false from the beginning based on assumptions. This would include the U.S. data on COVID deaths. Since the beginning of the pan/plan/scam/whatever-demic, the CDC allowed "probable deaths" in their death count. Couple that with numerous financial incentives (including CARES Act) for hospitals to have high death counts--and the data shouldn't be trusted. Since that time, we've also seen many accounts of murders, suicides, car accidents, etc. being included as COVID deaths. Not to mention awful treatment protocols (nursing homes, overuse of ventilators) that surely caused excess deaths.

As for data's consistency, sure. You can look at ups and downs even for bad data and see trends, as long as the data is based on consistently bad assumptions/sources--which isn't always the case when there are agendas at play.

Employment numbers are always massaged to suit any government's agenda, and if the formula is modified, it ought to be reported and debated.

I disagree with your assessment of covid reporting because I trust the medical hierarchy over politicians or media. For example, medical authorities warned early on that Florida was underreporting covid cases. But I don't doubt that over reporting also too place from places where additional funding created the incentive to call everything covid.
