I’m not sure how someone truly knows all of this unless you know the specific circumstances of someone’s death. There are also reports of people dying at home who were never tested because tests were at a premium.
However, in my line of work, your very case about hemophilia is called the egg shell doctrine. The car accident is very relevant, and if a person is at fault for the accident, then he is liable for the wrongful death. You take a victim as he lies. Generally, people who have underlying conditions can recover just as much in damages as those who do not as long as you prove that the accident caused the death. But for the accident, the person is still alive, and it is exactly the same with Covid-19.
As I said earlier, roughly half of American adults either have high blood pressure or are obese. I can’t say scientifically, but I would venture to guess that most Americans over 40 have either had a major surgery, take medication for something, or have an underlying medical condition. We are all human. As I have stated, I am a healthy 40 year old with never having stayed a night in a hospital in my life. I have run/walked 150 Miles in the last 6 weeks. Yet I have high blood pressure, and it’s most likely genetic. I have no doubt that someone would report it as an underlying medical condition.
Sure, it has hit nursing homes. But there is story after story of 40, 50, 60 years old who died and were not on their death bed this year.
I hate that it’s turned political. I am all for opening. But I work in an industry that is very susceptible right now. It’s all about population centers. Rural areas are fine. It’s all about trying to control the highly populated areas.
Missed the mark, counselor. It's OK, most do. I agree on the hating that it is political. However, as in your profession we all live with the facts on the ground. Our nation is at war on multiple fronts. Fact.
I could care less who is at fault and neither does the doc. He/she cares about what the COD is and records accordingly. In many blue states he/she has been given an order from the state and/or hospital to record the COD as COVID-19, period. That's documented and in evidence. The only question that needs resolved is whether the hemophilia (previous example), which actually caused the death, and the COVID-19 should be listed together on the death certificate. If they are listed together the statistics need to reflect it - not be coded strictly as a COVID-19 death. Which is what is happening in many blue states.
As previously stated, if no test for COVID-19 is made, how can the doc legitimately list a COD of COVID-19? He/she can't. It's as invalid as Fauci's "anecdotal" statement about lack of a trial in therapeutics. How can medical researchers, scientists and statisticians who analyze the data and model make life affecting accurate decisions and assumptions with faulty data? One modeler says 2.2 million deaths, then adjusts downward and downward after the panic sets in while the more sinister calculate the best ways to game the system for cash and power. Look what is happening in LA County today. Shutting down for 3 more months when a population of 10 million people has experienced only 1500-1600 deaths that are coded like stated in the paragraph above. That's not science - that's politics and abuse of power for personal and corporate gain.
All of that is a huge flaw in government and the law. Which is my point, not whether COVID is real and who it affects. Fauci claims there is only anecdotal evidence of hydrochloroquine working on COVID-19, discounting docs on the ground using it, while out of the other side of his mouth in 2005 states how excited he was that chloroquine was working great on SARS/COVID at that time. The source of the data from his 2005 statement was as he served as Director of the NIH. Turns out the host cell receptor is the same from then as well as now. Why the change in attitude about the inexpensive, proven med today? We know why.
Fauci knew about HCQ in 2005 -- nobody needed to die
I am not questioning COVID-19 as a serious disease. I am questioning the recording of same as the primary or only COD. From the data that is then recorded all of our lives are affected now and forever more.
Your blood pressure issue I am sorry to hear about. My wife struggles with it as do many in my family and friends. It doesn't kill you. It contributes to what will kill you if treatment for it is not successful. So if you were to die (please don't) from a heart attack induced by high blood pressure or a reaction to your BP meds while having COVID-19 antibodies in your system, should the COD be listed as COVID-19? We know the answer to that. A contributor, possibly. The primary COD? Nope. Yet, it would be coded COVID-19 in states where the statistical abuse is occurring.
And with that I retreat to my currently boring, no sports life.
propaganda machines...sorry not sorry.
