If you are going to use a crisis properly to panic the population, or at least a certain number of panty-waste governors, report as many deaths as possible as COVID19 related.
By the way, as we have previously passed on, the combined all-cause death numbers in March in the US are down from the same time period one year ago, indeed comparatively for several years, and are trending similarly for April.
And what about all the hospital layoffs – furloughs and reported financial losses — are we not in the middle of boom time for health care . . . the media would give you the impression people are dropping like flies with COVID and needing to get into hospitals.
This clip obtained courtesy HP is how they drive the numbers up (apart from reality). Illinois follows the CDC protocols for reporting.
