How inflated are the numbers with the NYS edicts of counting ANY death with coronavirus or suspected coronavirus as a stat?

Literally, a person could be shot in the head during a robbery, and if they were even suspected to have thr virus, it goes in the death count.

Interesting how the poorest areas are the most affected in NYC. This is like due to both 1) greater numbers of people living per house/apartment with inter-generational sharing of living space, and 2) greater use of mass transit.

New York City is dying. Blacks make up 13 % of the USA population...37% of Corona Virus deaths in NYC are African-Americans neglected by years and years of Democrat Party Scum & Vermin...with Obama being the absolute worst of them. It will soon all come out!!!

Why.,....Senior Blacks live in poverty with drug abuse, crime murder, no jobs, no opportunities, terrible education. Diabetes, heart trouble, breathing trouble, improper diets, etc. The only recent support has come big time from POTUS, Donald J. Trump!!!

Trump is your man...American Blacks...but...sadly, you do not have a clue as to how bad Obama has screwed you all in his eight years as POTUS. You have been used abused and neglected by your so called friendly Democrat Party especially the low life Obamas...period!!!abusers!!! The truth hurts...but the truth is still the truth!!!

Corona is largely a hispanic neighborhood and has a high number of undocumented individuals. I wonder how many of the covis infected are undocumented. I don’t believe DeBlasio has released that number.

I would imagine before this became known, many took the subway, or other mass transit to Manhattan twice a day. They are usually packed in there like sardines.

Corona is served by the 7 Train, the single most crowded subway line in the city and probably the world. It starts at the Javuts Center and ends in Main St Flushing. Flushing is Korean and Chinese. Corona and Elmhurst Hispanic. Woodside Sunnyside are everything. Jackson Hts whilte and South Asian.

Could it be that anytime someone IN Corona dies, they automatically add it to the coronavirus death tally?

Rosie is patient zero.

By now the Queen of Corona would be "at risk".

And right now, many folks in Queens are effectively in a "house of detention". Julio is safe, as the schoolyard is empty.

When I was kid visiting my grandfather in Manhattan, he would take me to the park. He stopped to chat along the way with other retired people he knew in the neighborhood who were sitting at benches, getting some fresh air. This was true even in the winter, so long as it wasn’t ridiculously cold.

I remember them talking about how now that it was flu season they were being careful not to ride the subways because they knew being elderly they were more at risk for flu complications and the subways were crowded. They just curtailed their various entertainment activities that they took the subway downtown to get to. In some cases, if they didn’t have a bad hip or something, they walked maybe 20 blocks or so to visit a friend instead of taking the subway.

I also remember that these people were not overweight.
