I doubt they are over reporting cases. If anything just the opposite.

Do you think there’s any evidence They are over reporting deaths according to coronavirus?Quote:

IL, no of course not. I was responding to Y and you misunderstood. I agree with G.
Over time we’ll be able to look at how many deaths were expected from the normal course of people dying versus how many actually died. As we did with Puerto Rico after the hurricane. I suppose some people will try to dispute that number but whatever. If a lot of people’s loved ones are part of the death count from covid no amount of spin will be successful.
I responded to a medical call yesterday that resulted in a death.
Patient had delayed a now-clearly-essential medical appointment because of schedule/travel difficulties due to covid-19.
Having some familiarity with his medical history, I suspect he'd have had 15+ years of good quality life ahead of him without becoming "bycatch" to the pandemic.
I am so sorry Bae. It is so hard losing people right now!:(Quote:
