An 80-year-old man died. This is not surprising.

>no one has stock of test kits for coronavirus
>tests themselves are often inconclusive even when they can be administered
>everyone is 100% certain about each death being related to coronavirus despite how many overlapping symptoms it has with other illnesses like pneumonia
I'm not saying the virus doesn't exist, but it's pretty fucking shady and propaganda-ish how certainly and definitively these things get reported despite the lack of proof.

This is a really bad use of this. A man as unwell as he was could have actually died from the flu quite easily. Stop politicizing people's deaths with your gotcha bullshit.

In the US they seem to count deaths as coronavirus deaths if the person has ANY of the symptoms regardless of whether they can be tested. None of the numbers can be trusted because everyone is intentionally bloating them for their own gain. States want more federal funding, the media wants more clicks/viewers and ad revenue, the fed wants excuses to do all their bullshit, and so no one is trying to represent true numbers but instead they look for every possible excuse to add people to the coronavirus statistics. New York, for example, counts people who get turned away from over-full hospitals as coronavirus victims even though they could not be seen by a doctor for any kind of diagnosis.

It's not really doing anyone any favours, especially in the coming propaganda war with China. The US is inflating their figures and China is underreporting them (a friend of mine from Wuhan mentioned that people are suddenly seeing urn deliveries all over the place, whereas they were barely noticeable before).

Anyways sucks about Rick Mays, but honestly he had a pretty decent run. Could have done worse. I've known people who died from heart attacks or strokes in their late 50s. They had their retirement plans all set out after working and saving for 35 years and then just croaked. Those are real tragedies, in some ways worse than dying after wrapping your Impreza around a tree as a healthy, horny, free-wheeling 20-something.

They did cocaine and heroin. Count in medications and drinking habits. That will easily do in any person before 50.

I'd guess 99% of the people on this site claim they're more intelligent than all the normies they shit on constantly. The sad irony is their just as fucking stupid, if not more so, hence why they believe corona is the fucking plague when it's primarily killing old and/or chronically ill people.

This. Incidentally, my aunt passed away today (4/14), too. I bet they counted her as COVID'd, too, despite the fact he was 83 and had health problems for the past year and two strokes last month before she got to the hospital. Hospitalbux for lies.

All of you might want to do a redo of some sort, like a memorial after this blows over. Anyway, I hope the Skype conference gives you at least some sense of closure. Remember the people that weren't even told of their loved one's dying.

Yeah, I was just thinking of that memorial thing today, too. I'd rather we just postpone the whole thing for a few months and do all the ceremonies (minus the burial) in one go. I feel bad for those people who are in much worse straits and countries/states than mine (flyover country), true.

Why is that one always taken as a "harmless" example? The flu is heavy, around 5% death rate overall, VERY dangerous for old people, takes several 1000 every year. Just nobody talks about it.
For an 80 years old man definitely life threatening.
