    Default They are padding the coronavirus deaths

    If you get hit by a bus but had the corona, then that has nothing to do with corona. That’s sort of what they’re doing. An infant drowned and they counted it as corona.

    The correct number should have to do with how many people died with corona being the primary cause of death. It’s not fair to look at people who were about to die and say they died of corona just because they happened to have some in their blood.

    They never did that for three cold or flu. If they did, the numbers would go way up.

    Okay so if you had heart disease and covid...and die...the US counts it as covid

    IMO that is the most honest way to do it

    China doing the opposite and everyone accuses them of suppressing numbers.

    "Oh he had a bad heart!...nevermind that covid thing!"

    A huge % of covid deaths are people with underlying issues... so this would explain why China and the US have such drastically different numbers

    It's the same thing as having AIDS and dying from complications to it. People don't die from HIV or AIDS, they die because it kills your immune system. So you die from opportunistic infections like fungal, turberculosis, even yeast infections. Long story short, you die from AIDS. Same concept with covid-19

    If someone had no heart condition then maybe but it’s fair to say many would have died of a heart attack even without the covid. You’re being dishonest.

    It’s like saying the cause of Lebron winning was Ray Allen.

    The only close to honest thing you could say are these are the deaths associated with corona but not caused by. The underlying conditions are just as much of a factor.

    No you’re being dishonest.

    Like I said people drowning are getting counted as corona.

    And many people that had other conditions may have died just as fast if they didn’t get corona. We just don’t know. At best you can say that they had corona but you don’t know if it was the corona. Many of these people would have died even without corona. People die everyday.

    Please don’t ignore what I’m saying. It makes people like you look silly.

    It's more dishonest the other way... the other way is hiding the covid. Which again, is what everyone is accusing China of.

    I had an aunt that died recently in the Phillipines. They were going to list it as coronavirus but she actually died of a stroke. The family fought for it because if you die from the virus they immediately incinerate the body. How the 2 are related I don't know. But there is some truth behind the death padding.
