Staggering Surge Of NYers Dying In Their Homes Suggests City Is Undercounting Coronavirus Fatalities

But another 200 city residents are now dying at home each day, compared to 20 to 25 such deaths before the pandemic, said Aja Worthy-Davis, a spokeswoman for the medical examiner’s office. And an untold number of them are unconfirmed.

That’s because the ME’s office is not testing dead bodies for COVID-19. Instead, they’re referring suspected cases to the city’s health department as “probable.”

“If someone dies at home, and we go to the home and there [are] signs of influenza, our medical examiner may determine the cause of death was clearly an influenza-like illness, potentially COVID or an influenza-like illness believed to be COVID,” said Worthy-Davis. “We report all our deaths citywide to the health department, who releases that data to the public.”

But the health department does not include that number in the official count unless it is confirmed, a spokesman said.


Just like in Italy. :mjcry:

does this mean they’ve made a breakthrough or what?

Coronavirus Treatment: France Officially Sanctions Drug After 97.5% Patients Recovered From COVID-19 Within 5 Days

France has now officially sanctioned the malaria drug chloroquine as a potential coronavirus treatment for patients infected with the novel coronavirus. In the U.S. President Donald Trump has also been touting the use of chloroquine and a couple of other anti-malarial drugs to fight the deadly virus.

"This ensures continued treatment of patients who have been treated for several years for a chronic condition with this drug but also allows a temporary authorization to allow certain patients with coronavirus to benefit from this therapeutic route," France 24 English quoted Jérôme Salomon, France's director-general of health.

Also, the U.S.FDA has acted fast to make the unproven treatment available to thousands of COVID-19 patients in New York, despite the fact the following facts:

  • the drug has not been thoroughly tested
  • the initial results are just anecdotal
  • Critics warn of potentially life-threatening side effects
Such hype about chloroquine being effective in treating COVID-19 patients is also causing a run on supplies for patients with Malaria and Lupus for whom the drug is really meant for.

Doctors in France will now be able to treat COVID-19 patients after Didier Raoult, a renowned physician who specializes in infectious diseases, announced a new clinical trial’s results. According to that, 78 out of 80 coronavirus patients recovered within 5 days after being treated with chloroquine- which is considerably quicker than the usual 14 days. For some COVID-19 patients, it can take up to 28 days to recover, if at all they did.

“Hydroxychloroquine and the combination of lopinavir/ritonavir may be prescribed, dispensed and administered under the responsibility of a doctor to patients affected by COVID-19, in the healthcare establishments which take charge of them, as well as for the continuation of their treatment if their condition allows it and with the authorization of the initial prescriber, at home,” Trustnodes quoted Oliver Veral, the Minister of Health.

In the U.K., the government has prohibited the use of chloroquine outside of the trial but that position is now probably untenable since they have to explain why they aren’t providing treatment as France.

This is from last week. It appears to still be promising but no breakthrough has occurred just yet.

2 articles came out today including 1 in NY Times stating trump has a financial interest in the French Company Panquenil, the brand name version of hydroxychloroquine..his cabinet and golf buddies have financial ties also hence the push of the drug

fukk y’all who said they ain’t taking care of our people

84 year old man fully recovered from Covid you love to see it:banderas:


this is the UK! Well done NHS...news that not everyone old dies...cotdamn we need something inspirational

China Wuhan Lab likely responsible



I mean its interesting but needs a lot more research and evidence behind it. I think in the next 5 years we will know the truth.

I think it was SARS where they ended up finding the bat cave some months/years later and killed all the bats in there or some crazy shyt.
