I mean, Trump asking states not to release unemployment numbers is an example of censoring the US' position in the crisis, so it's obviously happening to some extent. The US doesn't have nearly the level of information control that China has, though, so it's pretty safe to say that their published numbers are more credible than China's, even if they can't be trusted 100%.
