Here is what I consider as a COVID death irrespective of comorbidity
A person who would have likely survived at least "6 months" more without COVID should be considered COVID death.
It likely has to be decided over larger sample as individual probability is hard to decide.
Things like normal deaths during that period can be used as yardstick.
...
Some people have communist thinking that we shouldn't care deaths with comorbidity as it eventual helps the system(party).
In democratic system there is always reasonable effort made to save life unlike in communist where "system" is above individual.
In the end everybody dies if not COVID something else, so we all have expiry date.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have this viewpoint for last year or so that COVID is promoted as more dangerous than it actually is.
I have argued in favor of "stop the fearmongering" and just take reasonable precautions.
I was totally against the lock downs.
Based on all the statistics and listening from friends and network, It suggested COVID fatality rate is minor.

I can't suggest same for India.
The condition of people is miserable. Many people under 50 I know have died. Last count was 10+ and after that I am not keeping track as too many cases of different ages.
Reasons may be polluted air in india or people living in close proximity, But the ravging done by COVID is real as anyone with contacts in India can tell you.
I am open to "change of mind" if the proof to contrary , But suggest exercise caution.

This guy is presenting "scary" mismatch between Government numbers and what is happening on ground.
Now if he is doing "propaganda" and is a low life , I have no way to tell.
You can check his tweets and judge for yourself.

Haiti actually does not vaccinate against Covid at all. Maybe if you're rich and want it you can get it privately, but government does not vaccinate. So I assume less than 5% are vaccinated in Haiti and that that will not change.

One claim I've heard, no hard evidence to back it up:

India was treating with Ivermectin and then stopped when the vaccine became available and focused all efforts toward that. Also that it was banned(?) when vaccine became available, and is now starting to be used again when deaths started ramping up and that within about 2 weeks you'd see that dropping off again.

This problem is that if it is indeed deadly , You can no longer claim freedom of movement as individual right.

More deadly than a heart attack? More deadly than driving a car?

Should we cancel electricity because someone might get shocked?

Sure when it snows you need chains or traffic is blocked.
Also you change food habits to reduce cardiac risk.
It is all about probabilities and tradeoffs.

Being a perpetual centrist I dislike both alarmist behavior as well as total disregard.

I've read this too.

It seems to fit well with Peru's experience of using Ivermectin:

https://covid19criticalcare.com/ivermectin-in-covid-19/epidemiologic-analyses-on-covid19-and-ivermectin/



But Ivermectin is not profitable because it's nearly free.

I am not expert to say whether "Ivermectin" is effective or not.
But if it is effective and people are holding it for profits, They are responsible for human suffering as seen in video.
All I can is "shame on them". I wish we can know for certain and drag their asses into courts.

There was a report with an Indian crematorium owner who said 50 of his neighbors had died. Anecdotal, but it certainly sounds very different from what we've experienced.


I know lot of people have died.
On a positive note one of my friend lives in a high rise in tall building in India and only 2 older people died.
(It is collection of towers probably 1000s of people live there and ideal situation for lot of deaths)
Many of them had COVID and some severe symptoms but many young and old recovered(for time being).

At the same time I know 10+ younger than 50 people died.

The amount of disinformation and misinformation on India’s “Covid crisis” is now so vast that it’s hard to know where to begin to untangle the web of deceit and lies. ‘The Guardian’ on the 3rd May 2021. The article in question was headlined “Covering India’s Covid crisis: ‘Hundreds of journalists have lost their lives’”. This is a blatant lie. The current situation unfolding in India is actually only affecting two places in particular, Delhi and Mumbai. So this is far from almost everyone in the country, a grand total of 1.4 billion people. But the main “area of concern” is currently Delhi. Step outside of these two areas and you’ll find that the rest of India is carrying on as normal.

But the propaganda doesn’t end there. Later on in the article ‘The Guardian’ ask their South Asia correspondent ‘What needs to happen now in order for the crisis to abate?’ Here’s the answer that was given – “The only thing that is going to get us out of this crisis is vamping up vaccine production and distribution.” Prior to the Covid Vaccine roll-out the Indian Government had been treating the citizens of India with Ivermectin. . India began using Ivermectin late August 2020, and as you can see from the graph [in the link below] it had great success in reducing the number of daily deaths attributed to Covid-19.

However for some strange reason they switched tack in January to the experimental Covid vaccines, but didn’t really get going with the vaccine roll-out until the end of February. Fast forward two weeks and the deaths attributed to Covid-19, which had almost flat lined suddenly started to rise at an unexplained and exponential rate compared to the rate previously seen in India.

First off all they do is RNA tests to determine if the deceased had Corona or not, the last I checked the RNA test doesn't conclude it was indeed Corna virus 100% let alone what fucking Commie Strain.

I am not sure what it is.
Its a sad situation in India due to large number of people dead.
People need $2k per day of hospital stay and no insurance. The median income is $2k per year.
There are public hospital , which have no resources at all.

i think India has no resources to do full testing. The only think "private people" can do is look at symptoms and average "death rate" increase and see the impact of COVID on death rate.
Govt is in hiding and most likley they will either resign or dragged on street and chased like Gadaffi.(my preference for these criminals)
This time Bhartis should ensure no traitors come to power again.

Biden is killing the millions in India, they flourished and brushed Covid off under Trump.
The Commie Cabal with Biden demands they get with the program or get in the back of the line.
You wanna come to the Biden America with open borders, and foreign workers get fast tracked ahead of Tax paying Americans. Then you better get your fucking pillows out, roll up your sleeves and start snuffing out Elderly patients in your medical and Senior facilities. It's easy to do, furlough all of the competent straight shooting nurses and Doctors home. Hire only Satanic Humanity loathing Leftist Commies, kill anyone that steps foot in the Hospital, all of the honest staff are unemployed and not there to blow the whistle. And to combat boredom, for not having any viable patients they didn't snuff out in the middle of the night, make many Tic Toc videos with the complete hospital staff dancing. I think it's a confirmation video, so they get bonuses from CDC and WHO and the Biden Satanic Covent.

The Corona virus recovery rate for those that don't go to the hospital is 100%.

Once you go, you never come back.

Once communism takes hold, It is hard to uproot... I am positive that US will overcome this challenge.

I think it is very real possibility. Fascism and communism consider people less important than system.
Although Fascism and communism claim to be in conflict, But both are same "control freak criminal cults".
You can see that "Freedom loving" Americans have fought both Fascism(2nd world war) and Communism.. There is a reason for us to oppose both.

India is getting doubly hit.. Fascist India government controlled by communist global elite.

Putting India's Death Rate into Perspective

The corporate media fearmongers are claiming there are 120 COVID deaths per hour in India.

Let's put things into perspective, shall we?

120 COVID deaths/hour x 24 hours x 365 days = 1,051,200 Indian COVID deaths a year.

India has the second highest population in the world at 1,391,000,000.

1,051,200 / 1,391,000,000 100 = 0.0756% of the Indian population dead with COVID in a year.

And that's allegedly the highest death rate right now.

The USA has a population of 332,000,000 and claims to have had over 500,000 COVID deaths in a year.

Just think of how many US citizens would be DEAD with a death rate like that of India!!!

332,000,000
0.0756% = 250,992 USA COVID deaths a year.

Wait a second, that means the highest death rate in India isn't even half as bad as the average USA death rate in a year...

@booger
The numbered are severely under counted.
The range of discrepancy is 5-25x as per many experts. Let us take middle number if 15x , so total COVID deaths until now are:
246K*15 = 3.7M
Now if this number is scary for 1400M population country, This can be personal viewpoint as it is still very low.

Even per govt data, 22.7-18.7-.246 = 3.7M active cases. This is very concerning for medial system.

Recovered

Math doesn't exist anymore. 1M dying in a country of 1.4B is a massive nothing burger. The land mass itself is large, but not for the population. So yeah, it's going to be more grizzly looking than the US, where much of the country is rural. If we all lived East of the Mississippi our situation could be worse. We don't.

It's pure hype. And IF the Indians dying are actually dying of covid, that sucks. But the numbers on paper are super low. The narrative is the problem. It's meant to scare you, us, or anyone.

In last wave we had 2 deaths of people in 70s last year in rural Punjab in our close circle and nobody came to record it as covid death.

We can chose to ignore the plight of "poor Indian" folks dying and attribute it to they breeding beyond resources.
It is not humanly possible for outsider to help that vast population anyway.

But we are not as isolated as you may think from tragedy there.
The deadly cocktails of anti-virals, steroids and what not given in absence of qualified doctors will cause many hardy and dangerous mutations which can become problem for whole world.

I will give you example , Not specific to this particular case.
There is 1 person dies every month in village , But last month 20 died and they all had some symptoms similar to COVID.

What will you assume?

How the Govt officials are trying to mark deaths as COVID unrelated.
It is opposite of what is done in US by Xiden folks.... Call every death COVID.
I hate when politics take over health care and statistics are massaged for detriment of welfare of citizens.

If this repeats in every village(I would be surprised if It won't), There are probably millions of people already died of COVID.
There are "664,369" villages in India , If we take average of 5 dead... It comes down to:
664,369*5=~3M in last month , Typically India as a whole record 27k deaths a day... This IS 810K .
So 3M Rural + Urban deaths can clearly be contrasted with expected 800K normal deaths.
