Number of deaths inflated by one third to one half. That many would have died from the ongoing health issues that rendered them more susceptible to COVID-19.

“instead of waiting to get tested and waiting 5 days for test results, by then you are dead if over 70 years of age. Pandemic over.”

I agree to make HCQ OTC. My wife got tested and it took 18 days to get the results. Good thing it was negative. 89 years old.
