Early on, several testing sites/methods outside of hospitals were not reliable and had multiple false positives...also some states (with terrible leadership/logistical planning) were counting multiple COVID positive tests by the same person as a different positive account again and again.
Why would you go to get a test and give someone else’s info..... they do believe that there are significant amount of false positives/negatives from these tests..... as for deaths, they count every death that can potentially be counted as a covid death bc they get paid for it..... I’m sure there has been some missed as well
Technically, we are calling it Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C), now. It does share many features with KD, but there are differences, as well. Very uncommon (<<1% of CV+ children), overall mortality around 1%, and I do not believe there has been a confirmed case in our area, yet. Treatment is similar to KD: IV immunoglobulin, aspirin, occ steroids, antiviral if still PCR+, but it is usually regarded as a "post-infectious" process.
I’m not exactly for certain but I know that the hospital system that I am attached to pushes to get a coronavirus diagnosis for financial reasons..... I assume that leads also up to death bc I cannot figure out any other reason they would claim a car wreck victim as a covid death....I’m not a doctor but I do have an NPI number with my profession so I get info sent to me that tells me not to miss out on the financial gain that can be made from coronavirus care.
Look at the deaths when states started to break down the Chinese virus deaths. Not hard to find really. It's been in the news that if someone tested positive for the Chinese virus but was shot to death they still listed the virus on the death certificate. That gets counted towards this 200k number. That means the numbers are fudged which then raises the question how many people have actually died from the virus. Going by cdc it's 10k
