Bob Anderson, the CDC's mortality-statistics chief, defended its methods, telling the Daily Beast that doctors were already specifically asked to say whether the coronavirus caused the death.
"We're almost certainly underestimating the number of deaths," he added.
I know of a family of 5, all of whom have all the symptoms of the virus, confirmed by their doctors, but who told them not to go to the hospital for a test because no tests were to be had. Told them "wait until someone has trouble breathing, then call 911."
So if one of them had died, the government doesn't want to count them, because the government couldn't provide a test so therefore they must not have had it.
