This is the first I realized THERE WERE TWO allegations in Taiwan of under-reported deaths.
Apparently a JOURNALIST found out that Taiwan had 81 'probable' SARS deaths, PLUS 331 'suspected' SARS patient deaths. The article also implies this was reported to the WHO, but the WHO only publishes 'probable' cases.
This gives us 3 sources of info saying about the same thing...
-the journalist that found death numbers (412 total)
-the watchdog group that found cremation numbers (363 total)
-extrapolation of death rates from before the bogus flat-lines (roughly 400 dead)
[I feel it was a big mistake for the news media and WHO to ignore 'suspected' SARS cases. It is being so badly abused now that the 'probable' counts are almost meaningless. Hospitals STILL have to treat 'suspected' SARS the same as 'probable's, and the hospitals still fill up. HCW's still get infected from 'suspected' cases, and frequently after 14-21 days, the 'suspected' cases get upgraded to 'probable' cases or sometimes even die.]
Taiwan reports THREE times as many 'suspected' SARS patients as 'probable's. And we KNOW China has a HUGE number more, since their skyrocketing charts also abruptly flatlined in their 'outland' areas, and we all knew here that those areas would have the most trouble treating SARS.
