I saw drone footage of on twitter yesterday. I had no idea that they do that in NYC. I think it said the time to claim a body was decreased from a month to 14 days to claim a body or it goes to a mass grave

Just to get a sense of what they are going through right now, I saw this story about NY having to make much more use out of a mass burial site for unclaimed bodies.

Apparently they are going from burying about 25 per week there to 25 per day so far.


Well, the normal death rate is 100+ a day, if they are shutting everything down... well, no surprise there... bodies will be piling up as relatives are sitting at home eating chips.

assume you saw the thing a few days back about a roughly-tenfold spike in daily NYC deaths at home, which go untested, and coincide with the high number of daily CV deaths?

?

2019 vs 2020 paramedics reports; COUNT_83 represents calls where they were reported dead on-arrival



I read that and think that a lot of people are dying of things they might survive (like heart attacks) because our response to COVID has them unwilling or unable to seek medical care.

it's a theory, i guess.

but how do you square it with the fact that total calls also skyrocketed

If you look at the death rate trend it suggest at least half of the CV deaths are bogus.

That’s probably a certainty

I'm sure that will be a some part of it, but at-home deaths have grown exponentially lock in step with total daily death rates in NYC. The graphs look identical. I don't know how else to explain that

Basically no one is dying of heart attacks or strokes anymore. Hospitals are fudging the numbers and claiming deaths are due to Covid-19 to get a bigger payout.


Yea, everybody was in on it! I knew you would figure it out sooner or later. April Fools dude, we got you!

I am not trying to say people are artificially inflating the COVID totals, but it is a very safe assumption that a substantial proportion of things that would have occurred in hospitals 3 months ago now are now happening somewhere else.

If they are counting all non-trauma deaths that occur at home as COVID deaths, then the COVID death numbers are inflated.
This would be offset by COVID deaths that go uncounted, but the only way I see that happening is people that don't get found for awhile. At which point they will be counted.

Of course, from the person that thought the medical system was going to be overwhelmed.

Oh and implying 100-200k deaths.

Right, like I said avoiding hospitals is definitely a part of it. But why have at-home deaths increased 100% in the past 8 days (last daily figure I saw was 292 a few days ago)?

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) and the NYC Health Department are working together to include into their reports deaths that may be linked to COVID but not lab confirmed that occur at home," she said. 


Reading that, and the rest of the article, I assume that a first responder coming on a dead person without signs of trauma would report it, and it would be counted as a COVID death. What am I missing?

What is the effective rate of the test? i.e. false positives is a possibility, among many other possibilities. Does the test even work?

The conditions that are leading them to "work together to including in their reports deaths that may be linked to COVID" in the future, apparently.

Being DRT doesn’t equal a Covid linkage.

There’s no financial incentive for the OCME to pad New York’s lead over the rest of the country.
