teamgreen02 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 There are likely a lot of truth to the overreporting of the number of covid deaths. Between the overreporting on deaths and underreporting of cases, the mortality rate is way off. I had a family member ruled a covid death. They were almost 79, had multiple preexisting conditions, and was in and out of the hospital in the months prior. Their body was starting to shut down. Contracted the china virus in a nursing home during recovery. It led to their swift and peaceful passing a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, this data is being used to make public policy decisions like closing down small business, keeping kids out of school, and not allowing people to get the medical care they need. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do hospitals get more $$$ if hospitalization is due to covid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
