If you look at France  which now has big second wave seems odd thats there not more deaths yet?

 

 

 

Could be:

 

 

In spring, the number of actual cases was much higher than those that were recorded.

Younger people getting it this time

Better Treatments in hospital

Covid is now a milder strain?

Delay between infection & dying...

 

 

Combination or above.....

 

Next few weeks should   give a better idea of whats happening.....

Or maybe they have to be more selective in what they can count as a C-19 death? Eg, England counting dying of being hit by a bus 5 months after being confirmed to have had C-19 and recording the death as C-19. Or even car crash victims coming in who cough getting recorded as C-19 if they died.

Publication of official Government death figures has been paused since mid-July while investigation carried out

 

 

The Department of Health has been urgently reviewing the way in which it records deaths after Oxford University noticed in July that former coronavirus patients were being included in mortality figures even if they had recovered and then died of something else.

Hit by a bus ?

Or fell out of an airplane, or died of auto asphyxiation. The cause of death  is irrelevant, the point being unrelated deaths where being counted as death by C-19 if the person had contracted it and recovered then died of an unrelated reason. Being hit by a bus is of course hyperbole and was not meant to be taken that literally. It was more to highlight the absurdity of the situation, where someone to have caught C-19 and 5 months later they where hit by a bus their death would be counted as a C-19 death.

Absurd yes . But they would it would not be recorded as death from c19 .  Not after 5 months . You are making it up bud .

Covid death recount reduces UK toll by 5,000

Deaths recorded in England had included people who tested positive months before they died.

 

 

In England, there was no time limit. Someone who recovered from Covid-19 in March and died in a car crash in July would have been counted as a coronavirus death.

I'm not saying this didn't happen, I've read the same, but why would doctors sign death certificates that are blatantly untrue?
