The death count is being over counted if anything. Follow the money, click bait, hysteria...

[DoughtyOne]

Italy’s big problem was that it was declaring everyone who
died after being diagnosed with COVID-19, as having died of the virus.

It is knows that many of those people had terminal illnesses
that would have cost them their life by the end of the year
anyway. cancer, diabetes, and other maladies.

I’ve read articles on this, and it was so bad, it has been
determined they will never get an accurate count unless the
charts of every person who died are studied.

Seems like Italy is kind of screwed up.

“Irrelevant.

Antibiotics are only effective on bacterial infections.

Totally useless on viruses.”

Well, the antibiotic Azithromycin is part of the Chloroquine drug trials Trump touted.

hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin is the combo.

They system relies on honesty plus the fact that Medicare and insurance companies do recovery audits by medical review of records to determine accuracy of the submitted diagnosis. Admittedly the system can be gamed and it was back in 90’s by inflating diagnosis codes. Now the risk of DRG creep being caught is greater.

and many believe we are over reporting them as in Italy where they have said they are very “generous” there words not mine if anyone is suspected of Covid 19 (not even tested) and dies for any reason, e.g. cancer, it is listed as a COVID 19 death

Get some zinc oxide

[ronnie raygun]

I would think the opposite, they would be including deaths by other means on top of their corona count to keep the death toll high for political purposes, orange man bad

[brookwood]

818 people died in Bergamo Italy in March, normally only 200 people die. So 600 extra people died of something. If they didn’t die of Covid19, what was it?

Anything to try to put another nail in our nation’s coffin...they smell blood and hope to finish us off.

[Sgt_Schultze]

With weeks of hibernation, surely we have fewer routine deaths, like those from homicide and vehicular accidents because of the relative lack of targets and traffic. Has the absolute number of deaths nationally changed appreciably?

[reasonisfaith]

Are you certain somebody isn’t faking some of this?

[chris37]

Thank you very much for that advice. I’ve got vit C, but I’ll have to look into zinc oxide. I can only imagine that it’s scare now.

[allwrong57]

but we completely without a doubt believe China’s reports one fatalities!

[Texas Eagle]

Methinks the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

Found some yesterday at Target. Wife checked the internet first found where they have it in stock.
The drug the president is suggesting Hydroxychloroquine is a zinc ionphore. It will do no good without zinc ions. Quercetin works the same way for zinc ions this is not inflammatory and can be found in some foods(such as Capers and red onion.) Also Vitamin D prevents the virus from bonding.

[chris37]

Thank you very much for that information!

You bet and my only point was I trust nothing I read in Bloomberg.
