Massive Undercounting of Deaths Caused Directly by Covid-19
posted by jillzilla at 2021-12-23 20:58

jillzilla: "If official figures are to be believed, in Lafayette Parish [Louisiana] deaths at home from heart disease increased by 20% from 2019 to 2020. Deaths from hypertensive heart disease, or heart ailments due to high blood pressure, doubled and are on track to remain that high in 2021."
jillzilla: "Lafayette Parish’s chief death investigator, Keith Talamo, acknowledged that most people who die at home are pronounced dead over the phone. He said his office lacks the resources to test every death for COVID-19."
jillzilla: "And, in a significant departure from widely accepted death investigation practices, Talamo said he typically writes down “what the families tell us” and doesn’t push further."
