anyone else noticing the numbers on Worldometer for NC ? [View all]

for example, yesterday NC had low number of cases 500+ and new deaths in the 20's... so i was pleased hoping we had turned a corner, maybe masking was working etc ... we've been averaging 1k-1.5k cases for several weeks, deaths between 20's to high 50's a few times ...
so the low #'s last nite was encouraging and i checked throughout the nite, even after they reset back to zero by clicking the yesterday tab, 500+ new cases, new deaths in the 20's..
then watching the news this morning and they announced ~1500 new cases and deaths in the 50's, went to worldometer and the #'s had gone up over nite, like triple 😑
so today they have shown 249 new cases and no deaths listed all day, even after reset ... still says the same at 10pm ..
why would they be changing the #'s overnite other than to hide them?
you only see the new #'s by tabbing yesterday to see the update
..
🤔

not sure i like this ...
