| [Twitter] "Just dealt with the cemetery in NJ to do the gravestone for my uncle. The woman told us she had so many family members who were shocked to find covid on death certificate of those who clearly died from Alzhiemers or other things. Shocking conversation." |

| #18 My mother died of 'Alzheimers' at 97. My sister quit feeding her 3 days before. When I asked what she really died of, the Mort said, "Your guess is as good as mine. She was cremated." |

| #17 Considering the fact there is no single national much less global standard for death BY the Wuhan virus there must be discrepancies and by definition some must be extreme. That's just what happens when the standard is 'use your best judgement'. While it is by no means anything more than an anecdote at this point, I personally had an elder relative whose death was attributed to the Wuhan virus. He had lived in terribly reduced circumstances for some years and refused all medical attention, preferring to self medicate. When he was literally on his last legs my cousin took him to an ER only to discover he had stage 4 cancer essentially throughout his body. The ER though he was homeless and said they didn't see people that far gone in modern times. He developed some sort of respiratory issue in that last week and that was all it took. He lived for 6 days after being admitted. My cousin, upon seeing the cause of death asked point blank if he had been tested for the virus and was told 'there was no need'. The poor soul died of cancer, whether the liver, lung, prostate, or skull I do not know but I do know he died of cancer. An unimaginable end to an equally unimaginable life, rest in peace Christo. |

| #16 Matt Hancock has called for an urgent review into England’s coronavirus death toll, having only just realised that anyone who has ever tested positive counts in Covid statistics, regardless of the cause of their death. In contrast to Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, where daily deaths are often zero, daily Covid deaths in England remain high, and are falling slowly. Yesterday 66 were recorded. Now, statisticians have analysed Public Health England (PHE)’s methodology and found that at least some of this is because of a counting method that means that even if someone is run over and killed, if they previously tested positive for Covid they would add to the statistics. “No one with Covid in England is allowed to ever recover from their illness,” |

| #14 HT Clarice Feldman: @EmeraldRobinson · 1h BREAKING: Sources inside Trump Administration confirm to me that CDC has been misreporting the data for coronavirus to inflate the numbers. |

| #12 On the other hand, even if people are fudging the numbers, it's not enough to make a difference. The CDC reported 16,000 deaths from COVID in mid-April and less than 4,000 in mid-June. CDC |

| #11 I'm pretty sure my Mother's death certificate said, "Alzheimer's". I don't know if kidney failure or liver failure was the last straw, but Alzheimer's is what killed her. People with severe Alzheimer’s cannot communicate and are completely dependent on others for their care. Near the end, the person may be in bed most or all of the time as the body shuts down. NIA/NIH So if someone is shutting down with a few days to live and "tests" positive for COVID, is the cause of death COVID, or the disease they struggled with for ten years? Eight years? Two years might be harder. So many factors, including test accuracy. |

| #9 Texas has a death rate from COVID lower than any flu (and those flu numbers are under-reported). |

| #8 #5 But a lot more than its Scandinavian neighbors. Next time be smart, compare California & Texas. |

| #7 No one 'wears out' anymore. They've got to tag something on it. Death is one big pie chart. Move the lines closer on one causality only expands the area of another. There's money in that. |

| #5 Sweden has less deaths than Lockdown belgium Give it up. Lockdown was a mistake. Save the vulnerable, by concentrating on them. Not group punishment for all. Open the schools. |

| #4 592,791 as of today, of various other reasons. Give up, BP, even Swedes wear masks & practice social distancing nowadays. |

| #3 By that same logic they do not die of Covid then.. They die of "blood clots". |
