What's this?

It’s be GREAT if states stopped listing all hospital patients as “covid”


Right now in more states than not, if you test positive at all… And go to a hospital for let’s say a heart attack or a car accident and you die, you are still listed as a coronavirus hospitalization or death. Even if you had no idea you had it, or had no symptoms. Or no effects. This is completely driving up the numbers, and making it seem more serious than it is. I’m not saying that a virus does not exist, but if you die from a car accident, you should not be lumped in with those stats. How serious can it be if thousands of people test positive, but have no idea and no effects?
