There were people listed as having died from Covid, who really died from car accidents and gunshot wounds, but they had Covid a month earlier....so they died from Covid. The numbers were greatly inflated.Well, I don't know about Brazil, but the US is one of the fattest countries in the world. 74% of the population over 20 is either overweight or obese.
So, when somebody stumbles in to the hospital 100 lb overweight with diabetes and heart disease, and a cough, and then ultimately dies, in the US we check it off as a Covid death.
And yes, there are other countries that are fatter than the U.S. But the U.S. was very diligent about checking off the coviBobox on deaths.
Most of so-called covid deaths were people that were dead already. Most, not all, but most of those people were people that were choosing not to take care of themselves. Diabetics, obese and vitamin D deficient led as comorbities. All preventable. Age was one of the leading factors as well, that one, of course, is not preventable. Type one diabetes is also not preventable, but type 2 is what most people have - a direct result of poor eating and lifestyle habits.
