So if a person tests positive for the virus that causes COVID-19, that would count as a case. But what counts as a COVID-19 death?
During Gov. JB Pritzker's health briefing on Sunday, Dr. Ngozi Ezike, the Illinois Department of Public Health director, said anyone who had COVID-19 at the time of death, even if the person died of other causes, is counted among the COVID deaths.
In fact, even if a person is in hospice for other reasons but has COVID, too, that death is still counted among the COVID deaths, Ezike said.

The Final step will be counting people who are still alive as COVID-19 deaths. They haven’t gone that far yet, but they are just looking for a way to sell it.
If you are walking on the side of a road, and get run-over by a driver rushing someone with a fever to get a coronavirus test - ITS COVID.
How about if someone gets hit by a bus and on the side of the bus there is an ad for Corona Beer..does that count as a corona death
Good thing the government has supplanted God as the ultimate source of trust. /s
If you have a heart attack and you die, you died from heart attack, irrespective of if some signs of coronavirus were found or not.
If you are shot and died, you died from gun shot wounds irrespective of any coronavirus anti bodies.
Next you are going to tell us the coronavirus made the guy go and provoke someone to shoot him.
Your double speak will not be out of place in Orwell’s 1984.
They are doing this because the Federal Givernment is paying for CCP-19 scalps.
Can’t wait til they are sued or arrested for fraud and wire fraud
I wouldn’t be surprised if quite a few of the massive numbers of “coronavirus deaths” in New York are still happily drinking whisky and rye and singing “This will be the day that I die”.
The test is, what made your condition so serious that it put you so close to death that you had to go to the hospital. Now, if you go to the hospital for acute appendicitis and a whacked-out nurse strangles you, that's a different story.
“The Final step will be counting people who are still alive as COVID-19 deaths. They havent gone that far yet, but they are just looking for a way to sell it.”
And most everyone thinks the Chinese numbers are bogus?
Anything over a sniffle.
I read yesterday somewhere they announced big death numbers and then oops, they included a couple hundred people who had gone home.
Corona Beer..does that count as a corona death

Dying.
They booked Elizabeth Warren’s brother’s death as coronavirus. Trouble is, he’s been in a hospice for terminal cancer for years, long before cironavirus even appeared. You know what a hospice is right? Plus he was 86.
Did he die from coronavirus?
Of course not.
Did the Dems and Warren make them book his death as coronavirus in order to pad up the figures?
Of course they did.
Most “coronavirus deaths” in New York are fake.
That was in Pennsylvania.
My brother-in-law was on hospice care for a cancerous brain tumor. He had respiratory issues about a week before he was suppose to die from the tumor. He was a very early “presumptive coronavirus” death from Snohomish County WA. At that point by CDC guidelines they were not doing any actual testing to confirm whether someone who had breathing difficulties actually had the virus. They still do not in most places.
Whatever the pandemic hockey-stick graph says...
Same in NM. Had 3 in the county today, all counted as covid. None of the 3 showed as hospitalized, all reported with underlying conditions, all in a nursing home. One in his 80's and 2 in their 90's. In that age group and nursing home setting, and those ages were probably on hospice for the underlying conditions would have all died with absolutely no mention of the virus. The county and state relying on federal cash for every virus patient and corpse drives these numbers to insane levels. Makes you wonder if the Feda demand autopsy virus result proof.
Interestingly, there have been NO reports of the current Flu hospitalizations and deaths that usually are a daily feature so I guess the Flu season ended in January early.
until you stop reporting cases confirmed, the entire world FakeNewsMSM will continue to push the line that the US is the hardest-hit, I hear it constantly:
14 Apr: BBC: Will Covid-19 end the handshake?
By Bryan Lufkin
The United States has become the hardest-hit country in the global Covid-19 pandemic, with more than 550,000 confirmed cases and 22,000 deaths. People are staying at home to avoid physical contact, and are following advice from public figures such as Anthony Fauci, head of the countrys National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Fauci, a key figure in the US response to the virus, had this to say last week to the Wall Street Journal:
I dont think we should ever shake hands ever again, to be honest with you....
