'It is astonishing: under these terms, a person who tested positive a few months ago but then gets hit by a bus this week would be recorded as a Covid death' writes matthewlesh

Has Public Health England been exaggerating the Covid-19 daily death statistics? It appears that PHE compiles “out of hospital” deaths by searching the NHS database for whether that person ever tested positive. It then apparently fails to consider how long ago that person tested positive or their actual cause of death.

EconomyRules matthewlesh Kinda like the guy who was eaten by an alligator... They ruled his cause of death to be COVID. I don’t know which one tested positive?

matthewlesh Can’t find any record of bus fatalities in May or June

matthewlesh That’s a lot of people getting hit by buses, especially when considering the lock down

matthewlesh This is a manufactured problem. The number of covid deaths wrongly counted upwards are likely to be very few and certainly do not jnclude those knocked over by a bus. The number of excess deaths is more reliable and they are many thousands above covid recorded deaths.

matthewlesh Go party in Florida without a mask, Matty.

matthewlesh All those 39,000 people run by a bus. In a lockdown. Astonishing.

PoliceInspForum matthewlesh It's your government 🤷‍♀️

matthewlesh Figures don’t lie, but people configure .

matthewlesh This was discussed days ago. The actual difference in statistics would be less than 2000 from what we have been told. Unless we say that all the stats are wrong and all the figures are made up, which is frankly ridiculous.
