17% know some who has died of covid?? I can't find anybody who knows anyone who had died of it. Anecdotal of course, but wow.

"of Covid" or "with Covid?"

I have a few distant cousins who died. My mother was like: you know they died of Covid, right? I said prove it. I hadn't seen them in about a decade, but the last time I saw them, they were obese, toothless, drug addicted alcoholics with diabetes.

They died WITH covid, clearly not OF covid.

THAT is a great explanation......"With" not "Of"

I think this how a large large percentage of deaths occurred, that and cuomo and newsom.... and the news is on a roll today. I don't watch it, but I saw it as I passed through the living room where my brother was watching. I cannot change his mind, I gave up.

My second aunt, a chain smoker, died of covid. My great uncle and aunt got it while in Vegas and are recovering at home with low grade fever and a cough, doing well for now. They are both diabetics and my great uncle is extremely overweight, so I'm grateful that they're as healthy post-infection as they are.

Sorry about your second aunt, and glad to hear about your other relatives.

My ex-husband, who has a transplanted kidney, got both a major blood infection and covid at the same time. He spent a week in the hospital and is doing well now. I know people get sick, and some die. As for whether it was FROM or WITH covid, I can't say. I just know a ton of people who have had it and not died.

Side story, my MIL who is ALL IN on the covid, is visibly upset that she doesn't know anyone who has died.

I know a guy, who was tested by his job. He was told he had it, and had to stay off work for a week, until he tested negative. He never had a single symptom though. They also didn’t make him quarantine away from his wife and kids, and never suggested that his wife and kids get tested. I think most of the diagnoses are fake.
