In tne the US it is officially allowed to declare the dead as Corona Dead WITHOUT doing a test. You just have to be 'relatively' sure that a corona infection was present.
This is aggravated by the fact that one does NOT look if the corona virus was the cause of death.
So you just have to assume that the patient had corona, don't look closer at the cause of death and then you say corona dead.
That's how you get 2,000 corona deaths a day...
On average, 8,000 people die in the United States every day. In winter, 10,000.
