Begs the question what the actual toll is.
I saw something recently ( I’ll have to google it to find a link) that stated that of all the hospital deaths up to the end of July, around 25K, that only 1.5K did not have any pre-existing contributing condition.
The more this drags on, the more I’m of the opinion that it’s time to stop being so over cautious.
At risk groups of course, stay safe, but the general healthy population should just be allowed to go about their business. |
It is probably because they took the people who died due to other means, but had the coronavirus as cause of death adjusted. IIRC someone had CV but died after being hit by a bus, the COD was CV. Clearly not the case.
