This is another crafted piece of fake news engineering.

First of all the story is dated April 2020. Think back to April 2020. Do you think you had full understanding of the virus barely a month after you first heard of it? Do you criticise officials for not knowing everything about the virus in April 2020?

Let's go through the claims in this article.

First is that the two doofuses in the photo have been told by, uh, some people, that they're pressured to add covid to death certs.

They say, ‘You know, it’s interesting. When I’m writing up my death report I’m being pressured to add Covid,’” Erickson said

Who is 'they'? Does that sound like compelling evidence to throw at me - after you should have had two full years gathering more evidence if this was real?

Here's the second charge cited by your dipstick article.

https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/coronavirus/dr-ngozi-ezike-refutes-notion-that-illinois-is-over-counting-covid-19-deaths/2270810/

The state of Illinois, during early 2020, was carefully reviewing deaths to see if covid was killing heart attack and stroke victims.

Read that sentence again, because it's a sentence that state officials cannot say without conspiracy propagandists turning into: they're writing covid on heart attacks.

Read her comments because they were totally spun by your stupid article.

What's their third piece of proof. Look at this. Their third item of proof.

As Minnesota lawmaker and longtime family practitioner Dr. Scott Jensen recently observed, hospitals are incentivized to pressure physicians to include COVID-19 on death certificates

A fucking family practicioner said "huh why not".

Which family practicioner? Why only state lunatic republican Jensen who thinks climate change is a plot against trucks. Only homophobic disgraced politician Jensen. Funny they didn't mention that in his bio. Yeah, this guy thinks, "huh why not" and you cite it to me as the third piece of evidence.

Come off it, shill. This is the quality of the information making up your worldview. This is the world of shitty narratives and con artists you chose to live in. And any moron who upvotes you

I don't know, the CARES act seems pretty real to me, making this whole scenario pretty plausible https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/coronavirus

That's funny about Jensen, nice.

It's a strawman to point at a real piece of legislation and say it proves your conspiracy. Actually it's a stone man? An ironman? Because the legislation is real and your conspiracy isn't.

But again you're looking to change the topic which means I think you're conceding that you were wrong about the death certificates. If you want to talk about other things like the quality of different pieces of law, then maybe you should just indicate so by saying "I was wrong to believe an article citing those two dipshits, some misrepresented comments from Illinois state, and a weirdo qanon state senator"

I'm not sure how widespread misreporting causes of death was during COVID. I admit it. These few doctors seemed concerned enough to nuke their careers over it.

You called it evidence a minute ago, now you're not sure. Yet you seemed so certain. I wonder how much of your narrative bubble has equally shoddy foundations

Evidence != proof

Oh, I see. You didn't think it was proven, you just wanted to pitch in with an article from April 2020 with some misrepresented comments from an illinois official and that minnesota genius guesswork. You didn't think it was proven, you just thought we needed to consider a 2020 fake news blog about two seinfeld character clinic owners who heard a guy at a bar telling a story about a guy he heard about on the bus who knew a doctor who was pressured to falsify a death certificate.

Got it

Yes! Prove anyone mentioned isn't a real doctor and I'll apologize and delete all of my comments.
