Link proof of any other than some guy saying it's true. It just smells like made up BS to me. I hear it all the ####ing time but haven't seen any evidence of it.
Masks?

Really, Dr. Birx saying they're counting those as dying WITH Corona as a Corona death wasn't enough for you? If an old guy fall down the stairs and breaks a hip and dies do you say he died of a broken hip?201, TokyoJoe and PoleCrusher Thank this.

Depends on if he would have been fine without it and died as a direct consequence of covid. You can survive a broken hip. Again. Link proof or I'll keep calling bull.

Covid-19 only listed if contributing. If you think otherwise. Change you tin foil hat. It might help lol

To clarify, there are various forms of testing. My GF does testing for the state. She inserts a swab up to where your nose meets your throat (which is not a pleasant experience), and then the swab is sealed in a test tube and sent to a lab, and they get the results back in currently 5-7 business days. That is a 70% accuracy test. The rapid test which is done gets results back in 3 days with a 50% accuracy. Due to this having to be done in various locales and conditions, the testing is not always ideal. She does this with people sitting in a car driving through a test center. They never leave the car. It's not a perfect world, but they do around 300 people a day.

There was a doctor in California that made the claims on YouTube, and was blocked for it. With a fast search I could not find his name. But there are others as well. A search of “covid financial incentives” will turn up a lot. The linked article below has some numbers.

Televangelist Jim Bakker, shown here in 2018, faces a legal challenge from the state of Missouri for selling a false remedy against the coronavirus. The COVID-19 disease currently has no cure.

That's another thing I question, if this is so easily spread with sneezes why do they have to swab that far back to get a test sample?
-
It's called "Viral Shedding", where the virus multiplies and breaks down. It is basically where the breeding ground would be and helps the test be more accurate.Tb0n3 Thanks this.

That answers that I guess.
