And, BTW, there are also plenty of COVID deaths that aren’t being counted because people weren’t tested.
Well, I do believe this event will cause more changes to the way we live our lives. Just as 9/11 forever changed air travel and other aspects of our lives, so too will this. Now, this does not have to be all bad. I hope we SLAM immigration shut tight! And in the future I hope any POTUS will immediately issue travel bans...as xenophobic as that may be....at the first inkling of trouble abroad.
This can be a good thing if the nation goes in the right direction and implements the right measures. But that's me being me, always looking for that silver lining.
No way of knowing, but if others are counting like Louisiana is counting we know the numbers are not accurate. Nobody has died from taking hydroxychloroquine. This sums up the way we count in Louisiana...
You can be 95 years old with stage 4 cancer, weigh 600 pounds, diabetic and die with a twinkie logged in your throat but if they find out you had the virus, the virus is what killed you.
You have a ZERO chance of proving that BS.
BTW, have you and the drive by media figured out how to attack Trump as a racists because 70% of those dying are black?
If they weren't tested than how do you know they are related to C-19? Just pulling another worthless anti-Trump made up, worthless untruth out of your ass!
Gotta remember this quote by good ole Goosey. Everyone read this and remember this and then apply it to other BS he posts.
Oh, almost forgot...you have a link for this?![]()
They assume.
"In cases where a definite diagnosis of COVID–19 cannotbe made, but it is suspected or likely (e.g., the circumstancesare compelling within a reasonable degree of certainty), itis acceptable to report COVID–19 on a death certificate as“probable” or “presumed.” In these instances, certifiers shoulduse their best clinical judgement in determining if a COVID–19infection was likely. However, please note that testing forCOVID–19 should be conducted whenever possible. "

Yeah, but here is the problem with relying on that CDC guidance:

We definitely think there are deaths that we have not accounted for,” said Jennifer Nuzzo, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security.
Watched a video put together by a doctor in St. Louis explaining the C-19 virus and why/how it attacks humans like malaria does, which is a bacteria, Plasmodium. In a nutshell, C-19, like Plasmodium, attaches to red blood cells and prevents them from carrying oxygen. The anti-malaria drugs attack the disease by coating red blood cells in a shield that prevents the Plasmodium bacteria from being able to attach. When first infected, in both cases (C-19 and malaria) the body ramps up production of red blood cells since the body is screaming for more O2. Without the drug the invaders simply wait for the new red blood cells and attack them. Eventually the body begins to break down, organs will start to fail, as after shifting all extra resources to emergency red blood cell production, to no avail, the body wears out. And, in the case of C-19, it causes damage to the alveloi, the sacs in the lungs were O2 exchange takes place, i.e. red blood cells pick up new oxygen and circulate back through the body. This reduces the body's capacity to keep trying to supply oxygen. And the reason many patients end up on ventilators in advanced stages of the illness.
Caveat: I saw this video posted on Facebook, so it might be total BS. Had someone emailed me the link to this exact same video, I might feel more comfortable accepting it as accurate. But, since I arrived at it via FB ("where did you see that, on Facebook, LOL" - Goosey), well, I just don't know...
Not sure what you're trying to say. I don't access the New York Times site.
Is the 'We definitely think there are deaths that we have not accounted for,” said Jennifer Nuzzo, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security.' a quote from there. So there are dead people they can't find (-:.
