officially linked to coronavirus

varios hilos que explican la manera "oficial" de contar..

resumen: en UK no se hacen tests a fallecidos; si mueren fuera del hospital no cuentan, si la familia no da permiso no cuentan..

en Italia otro fenómeno parecido..

Italy's death toll from Covid-19 could be severely underestimated.

The town of Nembro, near Bergamo, had 158 deaths so far this year vs 35 on average in the recent past.

Only 31 deaths were attributed to Covid-19. (@corriere) https://t.co/yKJRDJcj2b

UK changing how we count Covid-19 deaths, deviating from all European countries

- asking for family consent (shouldn't be necessary for basic data like numbers)
- not counting deaths which occur outside of hospitals
- not doing Covid 19 tests in post-mortems

Question - why? https://t.co/KJNGxVuyt7
