This is what he posted:
"Two main statistics have been used to count coronavirus (COVID-19) deaths in England: death \registrations involving COVID-19 (reported by the ONS) and deaths within 28 days of a positive SARS-COV-2 test (reported by the UKHSA). The 28-day measure is a timely measure of COVID-19 deaths to inform public health response, but less precise than death registrations which consider the cause of death.
When compared, the 2 measures closely tracked one another (85 to 90% correlation) between May 2020 and December 2021.
85% to 90% correlation would mean covid death stats were over-stated by up to 15%.
The second test - the clinically verified death from covid, the one you refuse to acknowledge - has been in use for over three years: "Death registrations are collated by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) and represent people who die from COVID-19, as decided by the clinician registering the death. This measure provides a less rapid but more accurate measure of the burden of the disease over time and has been published on the gov.uk dashboard since 2020."
Wrong again. I absolutely acknowledged it. That's what's used in the more accurate count. The "28-day" count was the one that over-counted covid deaths relative to the more accurate one, which is what has been used for covid death stats up to just a few months ago.
From your own link:
It's even worse than we thought. Covid deaths are over-stated by up to 20%.
I should also mention, your gotcha claim UKHSA (28 day) measure under-reported deaths for the first two months was not relative to the more accurate measure. It was because the actual covid test only started to be used in April, 2020.
You really should have asked your mom to explain this to you.
Covid death stats are over-reported by up to 20% based entirely on your own documentation that you presented to us
She seems confused.
She's claiming to acknowledge that the clinical count has been around since 2020 at the same time she's claiming only the eventually less accurate 28 day count was being used until recently.
She can't have it both ways.
