Here are a couple dubious covid 19 deaths uncovered in Florida

So, not all rumors as it turns out. |
There is no doubt in my mind that there are errors and some outright fraud in reporting hospitalizations or even possibly deaths related to COVID-19. There are also cases that are correctly reported as death
with COVID-19, as opposed to
from COVID-19 as in one of the cases you cite. The posts I responded to said "
I know people directly involved in Florida and they are counting all deaths WITH Covid" & "
All hospital deaths are being counted as COVID. If someone dies from an accident, they are tested for Covid-19. If the test is positive, they say the death is from Covid-19. I heard this from a source who works in a hospital." The first statement is actually OK, as long as they don't include these with the 'from COVID' results. The second is just extremely unlikely: ALL deaths are recorded as
from COVID-19? I can't even imagine what hospital would attempt that level of fraud or for what purpose. And, both of these posts are of the 'I know someone who told me' variety & can't be accepted as fact without more info.
That was the basis of my "rumor" comment, not each and every individual case.
