Without an ounce of exaggeration I say this.
I was chief engineer at a hotel near an international airport and during COVID we cut way back on staff so I drove the shuttle van sometimes to help out.
I picked up a flight crew staying with us and dropped them off. Hour later I was taking the pilot back over to catch a flight back home. The whole time he was on the phone with I guess the hospital, his mother was in hospice and finally passed on.
He was red faced and yelling at someone something about she didn't die from COVID she had massive renal failure and congestive heart failure but they said she died of COVID and said her renal failure and congestive heart failure were due to COVID. He was furious, I'd hate to be the one dealing with him when he got there
Course little known fact.
Hospitals recieved extra funding for COVID patients under the cares act. So it behooves them to have as many COVID patients as they can
Local hospitals are reimbursed by the government more money for positive Covid patients than non-Covid patients, plus added bonuses for treating Covid patients with new Covid medications.
