Updated numbers from the U.K. Office for National Statistics show that 23% of registered COVID-19 deaths are people who died “with” the virus but not “from” infection. While the patients may have tested positive for COVID-19 at the time of their death, the virus itself was not the primary cause.
The news comes as COVID-19 deaths in the country have fallen sharply, with no more than 28 deaths per day recorded in a country that was once registering deaths as high as 60 per day.
The numbers seem to back up a warning last year from Dr. John Lee, a former pathology professor and NHS consultant pathologist, who called into question the way the U.K. was recording COVID-19 deaths.
“In the current climate, anyone with a positive test for Covid-19 will certainly be known to clinical staff looking after them: if any of these patients dies, staff will have to record the Covid-19 designation on the death certificate — contrary to usual practice for most infections of this kind,” Lee said. “There is a big difference between Covid-19 causing death, and Covid-19 being found in someone who died of other causes."

Number is closer to 4/5 ths. It has all been a lie.

How could this possibly slip past the censorship there ?

Get statistics of all other types of death attribution and see that the other numbers of causes (heart disease, Emphysema, cancer, etc... are all WAY down for the same period).
It is a fact that in US hospitals and doctors are Paid MORE by the government IF the treatment and DEATH was Wuflu related, and the attribution to Covid merely took a few lines on some paper to get the extra cash.
Leftists and their crisis - look what they gained by THIS swindle
.
cool really
Exactly. That's what our government officials and medical experts have done in this country as well. Lied about and manipulated the number of deaths to make this "pandemic" appear far worse than it is in reality.
It's like they coded everyone who died this last year who had a hangnail when they died, as a covid death.
It's not hard to increase the death toll dramatically when you do it that way. Give financial incentives to doctors and hospitals to code their patients' deaths as covid is another way. Not exactly objective and transparent, is it?
Fear mongering and, I suspect, trying to make Trump look as bad as possible.
This corona virus "pandemic" has been a classic "don't let a good crisis go to waste" by the democRATS. They'll continue to play it for all it's worth until the well runs dry and something else comes along or they invent another phony crisis.
What was the joint cause percentage (both the virus and the co-morbidity had to be present for death)? Nobody ever talks about that.
Here it’s at least two thirds.
