Told you Libs. I told you, we told you that they were reporting deaths of people WITH COVID rather than deaths FROM COVID. I also recounted the specific example of data manipulation that happened in a Michigan where Whitmer had a team of her chosen people review completed medical charts with diagnosis made by treating physician…. They actually changed diagnoses to a “COVID Death” in many cases when it was important to support the Shut Down, but changed directions when Michigan became the highest reporting state and it looked bad.
Shut down was unwarranted but politically advantageous to the Dems. They over blew the pandemic for their gain.
The CDC knew this was skewing data but went along.
The CDC has lost the trust of the American people. At present they merely support whatever the WH tells them that they want.

Nevertheless, the official numbers don’t capture all COVID-19 deaths, for several reasons.
When tests for COVID-19 were scarce while the pandemic raced across the country in the spring of 2020, many infected people died without being tested. That includes those who showed mild symptoms or symptoms that were attributed to other causes.
“If anything, we’re missing patients who had COVID,” Raja says.
The same is true for deaths that occurred at home, Aiken explains. Even now, tests are usually conducted only if a medical examiner or coroner has a reason to suspect that a coronavirus infection played a role in someone’s death.
“We won’t know for some time” what percentage of people who die from the disease died at home, she says.

And a comment from one of the doctors referenced in the AAMC article...meant for folks like Baron...
--------------------
“When people suggest that we are misrepresenting the losses and deaths from COVID, not only does it disrespect our hard work as health care providers,” she says. “It also disrespects the families who have lost loved ones.”
-------------------
Baron continues to debase the Medical Profession.

they do, however, get payment from Medicare/Medicaid for diagnoses that show COVID infections, and that is verified by hospital labs.
You can conjure up conspiracy theories until the cows come home, but it's a rare medical professional who's going to ruin their future employment over a false report.
Any other questions?

June of 2020, so you could attend the George Floyd riots.

Towards the end of her piece, Wen declared, "To be clear, IF the COVID death count turns out to be 30 percent of what’s currently reported, that’s still UNACCEPTABLY HIGH." (my emphasis)
---------------------------
Your constant mindless political conspiracy theories are an insult to all the medical Professionals who are continuing to use their education, training and experience to fight a pandemic disease...just like they did for decades before COVID-19 on Polio, Measles, SARS, MERS, Ebola, Zika, etc....NOTHING HAS CHANGED...except for nutcases like you.
Most of these medical "professionals" are just mindless sheep automatically going along with whatever the Great Fauchino spouted because they were too lazy to do their own research. Kudos to Baron and myself in doing our part to educate those we can reach.
someone covering for him/her...per the attached link...
----------------------
When a patient is admitted to the emergency room and expires, the ER physician routinely will ask the decedent’s primary care physician to sign the death certificate. California law states that the responsibility to sign a patient’s death certificate belongs with the attending physician---the physician in charge of the patient’s medical care for the illness or condition that resulted in death. Sometimes, the attending physician may be unavailable or on vacation at the time of the patient’s death. In this case, the physician who has agreed to cover for the attending physician is responsible for signing the death certificate. It may be necessary for the covering physician to obtain medical records from the practice and/or have a conversation with the attending about the decedent’s medical history. In any case, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, according to California statute, are not allowed to sign the death certificate.
When completed properly, the death certificate should communicate essential information about the patient’s cause of death. Here are a few important points to remember:
It must be completed by the attending within 15 hours after being presented the death record.
When unsure of the exact diagnosis, a physician may use terms such as: “approximately”, “possible”, “probable,” and “unknown.”
A death certificate can be amended at any time should additional information become available.
A physician may disclose private health information (PHI) to a coroner or medical examiner for the purpose of identification or determining the cause of death.
A death certificate is also required for a stillborn delivery when the fetus is twenty weeks gestation or more.
-------------------
I'm sure our family Attending ICU Doc would confirm this...and also state that this is not a record that is later changed by someone uninvolved with the decedent...in short, your comments are pure fantasy.
Don't look for a return comment.

That’s a very important issue, in need of further study.
Politics, of course, had nothing to do with it, then or now. But the dumbfuck chorus will never believe that.

Victims and car accidents were Covid deaths. But I guess the science is now changing?
unnecessary Shut Down to the public.

Needs to be studied further? You’re a clown.
