I can't find a source off the top of my head but the way China issues death reports is substantially different than how doctors do it in the West. In China if you die of heart failure while having nCoV-2019, your death certificate reports heart failure instead of the coronavirus. In the West, it would list both reasons as the cause of death. This is one source of that being standard procedure for the flu, from an individual which has been reporting about China in his YouTube channel for years, having lived there: “... but I asked my wife, because she’s a Chinese doctor, I asked her, why is it that China only reports [say] 43 or 53 deaths a year from flu, but in the rest of the world we see these massive numbers, like in America 50K-80K a year? And well, she explained to me very simply: when somebody goes to the hospital in China with a complication, let’s say heart disease, or pneumonia, or you know, any other ailment, and then contracts the flu which then exacerbates that ailment and eventually leads to death, on the death certificate they’ll write down the cause of death as: heart disease, or pneumonia, or whatever that preexisting condition was, not as death from the flu. However in countries like America, if somebody goes and they have a preexisting condition but they die due to complications brought on by the flu, on their death certificate would be written «death due to complications brought on due to influenza», and so it’s marked down as a death caused by flu.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE7Iz7HLpYg&t=4m12s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE7Iz7HLpYg&t=4m12s BTW, that’s the same video I mentioned in another discussion three days ago: “China Sacrifices a Province to Save the World From Coronavirus” https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22254414 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22254414
