She went to the hospital for cancer related issues, and contacted the coronavirus there. Hospitals are dirty places. Her immune system was already down from the other issues, so it couldn't fight the coronavirus. I would say, “the coronavirus killed her.” Sad, because cancer treatments have come so far. Had she not caught the coronavirus, she might have lived a long life. 54 is not old.

And we still have FReepers who completely trust the Fake New’s reporting on this!

I’ll say it again, we are being played by our Fake News! Just like they refused to cover Swine Flu in 2010, thus creating NO panic, they are creating mass hysteria with even fewer deaths with Coronavirus!

The American public at large are fools! It is now a misdemeanor in 2 utah cities for operating your business! This is the type of shit they do in Marxist cesspools!

Are you delusional?

Can I assume you’ve never had a doctor as a friend - or know anything about this profession?

No, I’m not delusional. Yes, I have several close friends who are doctors or nurse practitioners. No, I don’t know a great deal about the medical profession.

Here’s what I DO know:

See B.S. said that she died of corovirus, but they didn’t sign the death certificate. What was actually listed as the cause of death, who knows? I am not saying that the doctor filled out a false death certificate, but rather that See B.S. is likely not being “accurate”, on purpose.

See B.S., like all other MSM, has a long record of distortions and outright lies (does Dan Rather ring a bell?).

See B.S., as an organization, loathes Trump as much as anyone, and if they thought that perpetuating irrational fear and panic over COVID-19 might hurt him, or improve the democrat’s chances in November, they absolutely would.

That’s what I know.

My bad... I was surprised an old timer like you would take on a doctor signing a death certificate - that should have given me pause. As someone else also pointed out, the group being questioned was CBS not the doctor. I whole heartily agree with you on the issue now that that's clear to me... My apologies. Of course CBS would lie and/or exaggerate.

There’s going to be a lot of cases where — just like in a hurricane or winter storm — every heart attack or car accident is going to be reported into the numbers.

No worries. Meaning is not always easy to convey when you’re trying to keep posts to a reasonable length. Thanks for understanding.

This is pathetic. So many people on this thread now want to say that she died of cancer, when it is obvious that the Covid-19 killed her because she was weak from the cancer. Heartless.

She would still be alive now without that virus.

When people have diseases like cancer that weaken their immune systems and they get an infectious disease, it can be very deadly. And it is not the cancer that killed them, but the infection.

I heard an interesting story today about a local hospital violating a DNR on a corona patient. Presumably since they didn’t want to have the first local fatality. The Wu Flu is now a political and economic battle as much as it is a medical virus.

She died with the virus, but did she die from it?

Harry, Harry...

I'm not arguing that with you...

That's a philosophical question. She died because her organs failed in some way. Her organs failed because she had coronavirus. Coronavirus had those effects because her immune system was weak. She wouldn't have died right now if she didn't have coronavirus, so coronavirus killed her.

She had been on medical leave for an unrelated matter since the last week in February. Maria fought cancer and related illnesses for more than 20 years...
...but because WE SAY IT WAS, an otherwise perfectly healthy woman died of Coronavirus.

SHE DIDN’T DIE OF THE CORONA VIRUS.

SHE HAD CANCER FOR TWENTY YEARS.

I am with you. I posted to highlight my belief that democrat states are attributing all deaths, regardless of their underlying health issues, to COVID-19. For example, you die in a car accident, busted your lungs, ended up with pneumonia and die. You are now statistically a COVID-19 death.

Nowhere in the article does it report that the death certificate lists WuFlu as an immediate or underlying cause of death.

Have you seen the death certificate?

Neither have I.

We don’t know what this lady died of.

All we know is what the article tells us.

I wonder if her 20-year-battle-with-cancer affected her immune system in any way? Fake/Distorted news. Oh, sure, she died of the wuhan red death virus...oh, sure. Yet more fear-mongering.

AND was on medical leave. I watched CBS This morning and the did NOT mention this in their introduction to this and the tease to the story. Why does the media have to always be corrupt and deceitful?
