Exclusive: CDC says North Carolina is the only state not to submit mortality data from death certificates

"An exclusive WCNC Charlotte Defenders investigation is revealing the CDC is missing valuable data from North Carolina during the pandemic.

The CDC collects data about how many people have died from COVID-19 from every state.

However, the WCNC Defenders team learned North Carolina is the only state that hasn't submitted an official count. The CDC says the statistics help them determine where resources are needed most."
