Hundreds of people dying in their homes or on the street in New York City are not being including in the coronavirus death count even if they had symptoms; suggesting the city may be significantly under-counting its COVID-19 fatalities.

Data from the NYC fire department shows that 1,125 people died in their homes or on the street in the first five days of April alone, which is more than eight times the number of deaths recorded this time last year when when 131 people died.

The daily tally of residents who died at home with coronavirus-like symptoms exploded from 45 on March 20 to 241 on April 5, the data shows.

The fire department data is based on information collected during 911 calls involving cardiac or respiratory arrest with fever and cough; symptoms that are in line with severe coronavirus cases.

While those symptoms could also fit diseases such as influenza, the steep rise coincides with the surge in coronavirus cases and deaths in New York City.

Between March 20 and April 5, the number of coronavirus-like cases, including patients who survived, tripled from 94 to 322.

The percentage of calls in which paramedics could not save the person rose from 48 percent percent to 75 percent.

Paramedics have not been testing people for coronavirus if they die at home or on the street. It suggests that the soaring death toll from the virus could be much higher than currently reported.

The death toll in New York City increased by 518 on Thursday, bringing the total number of deaths to more than 4,700. The number of infections increased by 7,500 to bring the total cases to more than 87,000.

As New York City deals with the mounting coronavirus death toll and dwindling morgue space, the city has now shortened the

[No. The deaths per capita are high in Italy (312) and Spain (344) because they are letting people die. Here our rate is 57. We might get to about 200 (0.02%). That’s basically the per capita rate from a bad flu season. ]

What’s your final estimate for US deaths from the coronavirus this year?

[conservative98]

You are fake news.

[Just because you keep repeating this hyperbolic crap doesn’t give it any more validity. Outside of major metropolitan areas, the WuFlu has a far lower incidence and mortality. I don’t know what your agenda is, but (as I pointed out on another thread where you posted fraudulent data) your propaganda is highly in error... ]

They dont take a vial of blood for testing?

HAAAA ha. you’ve been duped.

I read some books about ‘you’ many years ago....

They were more believable than this article is.

:) Someone who knows the books. Very happy to meet you!
Since I was at a loss for a ‘name’ choice, my childhood heroine came to mind.

No, they are dying in their apartments. They are not allowed out on the street much, please read above.

People with other ailments are afraid to go to the hospital. They are afraid of becoming infected with COVID. Some of these people are dying in their houses.

There are any number of Freeper medicos. Look up their posts. There are tons of paperwork involved. They are dealing with 8x normal volume with the same number of staff, minus the people sick with the coronavirus. A 23-year Freeper said his NYC resident sister-in-law died, and city employees would not conduct an autopsy to rule out foul play, even though it might be needed for estate-related purposes.

Unfortunately, NY + NJ's efforts to "flatten the curve" have largely been ineffective.

Don't know if that's true.

Birx said that people who die from COVID on average die 20 days after becoming infected.

So the people who died today, on average, became infected around March 21st.

Were people trying to mitigate back then?

[livius]

Actually, I read that NYC is not even testing bodies recovered from streets or places where people died alone but is just declaring that they are all COVID deaths (unless it’s something obvious like a gunshot or getting run over by a bus).

So NYC is seriously over reporting. All other causes of death have dropped off the map. Nobody dies of anything else there now.
