I went to a mortuary on Friday that I’ve been to many times in the past.

As these were deaths in the community it’s unlikely any would’ve been tested for Coronavirus meaning their cause of death wouldn’t be recorded as such.
Another excellent point, some deaths are not recorded as Corona, when they could very well be a result of the virus. Really makes you wonder what “numbers” are accurate?
