“NY just changed over 1000 deaths to Corona deaths, I assume so hospitals can get extra money.”
Right. The hospitals supposedly get 3X the money for WuFlu deaths than regular deaths. Why WOULDN’T deBlasio and Cuomo go for the bigger bucks? Screw getting America back to normal.
That is no doubt why Andrew Cuomo has demurred from being drafted as the Dem nominee. Trump KNOWS this, and can document it.

The important thing to understand is that 556 - deaths in NYC yesterday from Covid19 - is bigger than 148. It’s what’s called a “higher” number. You can also say there are “more” people dying. Usually “more” people dying is considered a bad thing. But not on the flubro thread! Because
you
are
all
spouting

reason
