Are all those deaths proven to have Covid-19 as the primary cause? Or are they the numbers of all deaths, including those completely unrelated to Covid-19, published to incite fear?

You have no idea, and you shouldn’t be posting unverified propaganda.

Wow. Those are the numbers we have; collected and posted by Johns Hopkins. They’ve been agreeing with the numbers sourced elsewhere.

What numbers do you propose we use?

I supposed our entire health-care network could be in on the conspiracy.

The point of posting those numbers was to show that there is indeed a very strongly localized problem that is, currently at least, very out of whack from the rest of the country - which is not seriously in dispute. As for what to do with that information? That is a different question. The CDC has apparently, with the President’s agreement, decided to issue a travel advisory.
