Just wait until they do postmortem testing and reclassify half those deaths as Covid deaths


It is actually opposite of what you posted. You do realize the hospitals are getting more $ on corona cases right? Why not designate something a corona related when it is not and make the hospital more money?

As has been beaten to death in this thread, because hospitals doing this are ensuring low volumes and canceled elective procedures for longer time, which makes them way more money than 20% extra per COVID death.

If they are going to do something illegal, they would be classifying COVID deaths as not related to COVID, thus greatly reducing the # of COVID deaths, thus helping to reopen everything back up, thus getting volumes and elective procedures back up sooner, thus making way more money than 20% extra on COVID deaths.
