@TaLoN132 it's from the John Hopkins study, so any discrepancies, you need to contact them about.
I had been following the numbers pretty closely until about July. Just curious. I'll check it out. Thanks for posting.
@TaLoN132 I do actually agree with you though. I've heard covid is 3rd or 4th.
Well. I have to get a little rest before my kids wakeup, which will be in about 4 hours. Have a good one.
Good night.
@Huila If the people who would normally live 2 more months with last stage cardiac failure, dies after 1,5 months during a covid infection, the results you quoted would be more or less exactly what you see.
And this fits very well with what we are seeing here.
There's a reason John Hopkins took the article down. I went over in some detail yesterday in this chat why her analysis is flawed.
Can you explain why?
The numbers in general do not ad up though
The fact it came out of Johns Hopkins is kinda surprising
Short answer is that her analysis is drawn from this table that covers just three weeks of death where she looks at the differences in categories of deaths from the previous week and she excludes the Covid-19 category. A proper analysis would look at the sum of deaths not the differences and would include all categories.
I would expect John Hopkins to remove it as speculation.
It is interesting as such (qualitative reasoning), but not in this climate.
*"The reason we have a higher number of reported COVID-19 deaths among older individuals than younger individuals is simply because every day in the U.S. older individuals die in higher numbers than younger individuals,"*
This, for instance, is probably right and wrong at the same time.
Was a general statement. Like everything thst is put out by mediz and gov. Here in belgiun
In feb. When you looked into the off. Stats website. They stated counting all lung dis. And flu's as covid.
Mixing and matchen graphs with both test and confirmed cases stats.
I could go on
@andrasol, you just advanced to level 2!
@andrasol That because there is no standard within the medical community as to what get registered as what.
Cause of death is more complicated than people think it is.
The who issued a 14 page doc
This leads to different numbers from different actors and constant revisions by number crunchers.
All part of the scientific process.
Telling hosp. How to make that determination
yes, that is common too.
I read it
Had it reviewed by people in the bussiness
Hospitals that is government run, gets intructions on everything.
And its comp. Mad
And our gov. Does not use multiple sources or statisticians
quote what you think is mad, and I will explain it to you.
Just 1 institute (sciensano)
You seem to have up your mind here, so I cant help you.
Sorry.
Im afraid you are seeing this through a lens that is not appropriate for belgium, reg. How the stats are handled
Id be happy to listen to you explain the who guidelines on death counting and assigning the causes
If that is the case, pm me. This is maybe not the place for covid disc. As its the election 2020 page
yeah, but your mind is already made up, so I fail to see the point.
It would be a waste.
So now your a mind reader
