If you are run over by a truck you are a Covid19 death

Colorado just admitted that regardless of what caused your death if an autopsy revealed you had the virus in you, you were added to the stats as a Covid19 death.

This is true for all states and likely was done to make the pandemic to look worse than it is and be in line for more federal funds.

@Jlhzfromep 20% for Medicare patients, so still likely below cost of the actual care. Does that mean there is widespread fraud from American hospitals? Probably not, especially as testing is generally done by outside entities.

There are certainly no additional payments for coronavirus [i]deaths[/i].
