re: COVID facts from Nate Silver - which states fared better or worse?

quote:

---

My dad had a heart attack at the beginning of Covid. They brought him to the hospital. He immediately tested negative for Covid. He coded 4 times before he died, and tested negative for Covid 5 times.

They put Covid as his cause of death. My mom called the coroner to ask why. She was told that anything that was not a gunshot was marked down as death by covid.
