Death toll bickering is just moving the goalposts to fit an agenda. We must keep our hospitals functioning and so far we have been successful.

It doesn't matter how old someone is, if Covid-19 contributed to their death, it is going on the death certificate as a contributing factor. This isnt any different than the way other conditions are documented on death certificates.
As for "natural causes", that is rarely going on a death certificate in the hospital, because in general contributing factors are known.
Sorry for belaboring the point, but it's tough for me to keep my mouth shut when this topic is being discussed

I worked on at least 1000+ people who presented as dead or on the verge of dying without any obvious trauma. Without any medical history you work on the initial assumption its a respiratory or heart issue. In this case, Anyone presenting with coronavirus systems, you have to assume, at least initially, that your dealing with a coronavirus patient.

My school is a high school, so the advisors to the seniors are especially torn up.

Everyone has had a bad teacher, I get it. But, most are in teaching to help the kids. I'll never understand this bashing of teachers. My wife cried last week over a kid she thinks she got turned around, showed him how to learn despite his home and social situation. That e-learning could cause him to revert back to the kid that most view as a lost cause.
