Co-morbidity. In the presser yesterday they said 90% of the deaths in Italy had three or more other diseases.

It’s the way they gather the statistics. They report every single death as a Coronavirus death, whether it was the primary cause or not.

So let’s say I get hit by a car, but they test me for Covid19; I end up in the Coronavirus death stats
