They aren’t testing the strokes, etc for Coronavirus. They are testing the people with respiratory issues. Split it up all you want but it is playing a role in those deaths.


Is the same done in regards to the regular flu?

Deaths attributed to the flu are estimated based on a number of things.

NYC numbers are cooked so that "if it died, and it tested positive for Covid-19, book it" Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, Professor Emeritus of Medical Microbiology at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, "…the mistake is being made worldwide to report virus-related deaths (continued) soon as it is established that the virus was present at the time of death – regardless of other factors.


Why is our source for this a professor in Germany? Is there any source from doctors or officials or anyone in New York that this is how they are counting the dead?

edit: Also, after googling I see this guy talking about deaths, but not those in NYC in particular. Any indication he was talking about the US at all?

This is the link to the COVID-19 tracker that I have shared on Google Drive. Chromdome's COVID-19 Daily Tracker

The source for the data is https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
The source for the testing data is from https://covidtracking.com/data/

On the tracker sheet you will see tabs for the following data:
1) US Summary
2) Country Comparables: This shows you how the US stacks up vs. select other countries dealing with COVID-19
3) Logarithmic Comparisons - Shows the US vs the other countries on the tracker.
4) Covid Vs Other Outbreaks - Compares the current COVID numbers to the last 10 years of flue and H1N1
5) US Weighted Averages - Explores 7 day vs 3 day weight average trends
6) Italy Summary
7) UK Summary
8) France Summary
9) Germany Summary
10) Sweden Summary
11) World Summary

NOTE: The daily growth rate data will not be accurate until the end of the day's postings. It will change throughout the day.
NOTE: I am not tracking individual states, I don't have a reliable consistent source for that data.
NOTE: I am not a mathematician, statistics guru, scientist, sharpest tack in the box, I'm just a guy who likes to understand for myself what is happening and to share it with others. This thread was not created to debate if you should or shouldn't take this seriously, it is simply to present the numbers and foster conversation.

NOTE: I am showing the entire month of March in this screen capture.

Somebody nailed the 1000 deaths prediction a few days ago. Don’t remember who it was

Me :(

In fairness, several posters have said it. I'm pretty sure Ace did, can't remember the others.

If you look at the # of deaths progression for the month of March you'll see we went from 1 to 5000 in 30 days.

Pennies into dollars.

Not a rigorous study by any means, but saw a map of NYC cases. Sure looked like the longer the subway ride, the more COVID cases.

It looks like WorldoMeter flipped the clock to tomorrow early tonight without another update.

I noticed that. Tomorrow the numbers could be artificially high. Which means they're artificially low today.

It wouldn't matter much in the grand scheme of things. New York and Louisiana had a head start. New York is a destination place with an incredibly high concentration of residents and New Orleans had mardi gras. I think people underestimate how big mardi gras is and how many tourist travel from all over to see it.

The rest of the country is behind but slowly catching up unfortunately.

It looks like for now the new case rate is going to settle around 15% which I guess is better than I thought a few weeks ago

New York/New Jersey has over half the country's deaths.
