The federal government is classifying the deaths of patients infected with the coronavirus as COVID-19 deaths, regardless of any underlying health issues that could have contributed to the loss of someone’s life.

Would they have not died but for the China Virus infection?

That’s harder to answer. But there are stories coming out of someone dying of various conditions, tested, and then counting as a COVID death.

Laura Ingraham interviewd an MD tonite that said the hospital where he works expects their docs to specify covid19 whenever possible.

Basically stated that the reason behind this is if a patient is dianosed as covi19, the hospital can bill $13,000 for treatment (gummit guaranteed payment)

He went on to explain if the “covid19” is put on a respirator, the tab bumpsvupnto $39,000

Of course, this will result in a drop in the death rate for many common causes of death.

Keep the numbers up so you can keep the shackles on.

It will be found there’s really not much difference between the CV and the Russian Dossier.

A doctor and state Senator was the first to blow the whistle on the CDC mailer to health professionals directing them to list all deaths where the patients exhibit Wuhan Virus “like symptoms” as Wuhan Virus deaths regardless of any underlying causes.
The doctor was interviewed this evening on the Laura Ingraham program and he told her about this.
Basically, called BS on the CDC and then told her about long-standing CDC Guidelines for doctors reporting the cause of death on Death Certificates that the Wuhan Virus guidelines contradict.
He intimated, that the CDC is attempting to Cover their Asses (my words) for being so wrong, for creating nationwide/worldwide panic. And, they are using these Wuhan Virus guidelines to INFLATE the number of Wuhan Flu deaths to cover their sorry asses.

Apparently, doctors and nurses around the world are wondering why no one is dying from heart attacks and strokes anymore.

Flu and pneumonia deaths also went off a cliff.

Turns out everyone is only dying of #Coronavirus now.

Gee. I wonder why.

When NYC has 800 people (at least) die in one day, when something like 200 people normally die in a given day, Coronavirus could well have something to do with it.

Although perhaps there may be other causes?

Duh, this is how 80 million died of the flu last year. No reason to get outraged now.

Look on the bright side. Zero gun-related deaths, everywhere in America. Even if no proof of Coronavirus, all deaths can be suspected of being caused by it. Gotta get those statistics over 100,000 before the election.

OK cool. I guess all the Chicago shootings will now be classified as CV-19 deaths.

Damn Chinese bullets.

Yeah, lets pump up those numbers, and make sure everyone
knows how much we need bureaucrats.

Non-rhetorical question: What are the other ways to track Covid-19 deaths?

Death certificates in the United States tend to list single causes, AFAIK. For the overall spread of the disease, tracking where it moves, this does make some sense.

Same thing they’ve always done with alcohol related accidents. If you had a drink, and are hit by a meteor at a red light, it is an alcohol related accident.
