In response to "all numbers are significantly off, even deaths, NY death certificates are 5 or 6x last year, people passing out and hitting head/not listed as c19 -- nm" by zeitgeist

There was significant amounts added to the counts a couple of weeks ago based on "presumed cases"

Determining cause of death isn't as important to doctors in the middle of things as people seem to think. Counts are still low, I agree, but I think we will get something approaching a "real" number eventually. But even the "wrong" number has use in determining the spread of the outbreak.
