That's a nice explanation of why the Italian rate is overblown.
It was on the BBC News today that 'Eddie Large' - (If yer not a Brit he was a super-famous comedian (part of a duo in the 70s and 80s - Xmas prime time specials every year, you know the sort of thing)) had died 'having contracted Coronavirus in hospital....'
NOW... he also had a serious heart condition, so was it that or Covid-19 that actually killed him....?
The News was very specific to not say that he had died OF Covid-19, but that's probably not how it's going to be circulated in most households.
More than 50% of Italian 'Covid-19 death's had THREE OR MORE other serious diseases or conditions. Yet every single one of them is recorded of having died of Covid-19.
However, they died with it, not necessarily of it.
It's all in the video.
Nice to be in a sceptical bubble here on Hive, I'd be hated if I tried sharing these views IRL, I might get punched, but you know... not for another month at least.
Thanks for the comment. It really came as a missing puzzle to my post. From what I know most of the deaths are of people that suffered from other serious diseases as well. I don't try to make people believe the virus doesn't exist but rather try and make them, the ones reading, to see that numbers are exaggerated and the measures taken don't match the gravity. Most and foremost I don't watch TV and don't trust any media outlet. I graduated Journalism but refused to work when I saw what it's really about. My diploma subject was Manipulative techniques in Romania used in written press. I got the lowest grade and you probably guess why. For me the situation is definitely created to enforce more privacy and freedom constrictive measures.
It's insane what's going on in the media - utterly shameful.
Although I don't want to downplay it - it is about as serious as flu (I think) but the problem is it's new, it can mutate, and it's several times more contagious, so it's like everyone getting it simultaneously is what overwhelms the health service, then the knock on effects.
I think the measures will save lives, however a more selective isolation strategy may have been less socially harmful.
