Many moons from now I hope someone goes back and reanalyzes all of this. I suspect there's a lot more deaths from this than what is being reported. Would be pretty easy to look at the "natural" death rate based on long term averages and see the spike starting in February or March (and beyond) to gauge the real impact of COVID-19. Too bad most journalists don't have the tools or resources to do this type of analysis. And would the Repuglicans even care (aka, same response to global warming stats/arguments).
