If you look at the deaths graph on the last page of NYC’s own statistics
You will notice that, for the last week, the “probable” deaths (no positive COVID test) exceed the “confirmed” deaths (had positive COVID test)
With the expansion of testing ability, NYC has NO EXCUSE for not giving each suspected COVID death a test.
NYC is counting lots of non-COVID deaths as COVID deaths.
I read that NY gets an extra $39,000 from Medicare for covid deaths. They have a financial incentive to lie.
