If this were true, and numbers were being inflated by falsely labelling any and every death as caused by covid, then we wouldnt see the daily death rate in NYC (for any reason/cause) at least double the average daily death rate, just in nyc, of the entire state of new york's average daily death count on this same day in years' past. In other words, why are there over 700 deaths in a day in NYC alone, when in past years, the average death count for the city was 150-200, and around 400 for the entire state (for any reason/cause)? We can put the cause of death aside completely and disregard it, and the conclusion is that, at the least, something has caused a significant rise in deaths per day in new york
