Changes definition of COVID death from ‘with COVID’ to ‘by COVID’.
The Italian Higher Institute of Health has drastically reduced the country’s official COVID death toll number by over 97 per cent after changing the definition of a fatality to someone who died from COVID rather than with COVID.
Italian newspaper Il Tempo reports that the Institute has revised downward the number of people who have died from COVID rather than with COVID from 130,000 to under 4,000.
“Yes, you read that right. Turns out 97.1% of deaths hitherto attributed to Covid were not due directly to Covid,” writes Toby Young.
Of the of the 130,468 deaths registered as official COVID deaths since the start of the pandemic, only 3,783 are directly attributable to the virus alone.
“All the other Italians who lost their lives had from between one and five pre-existing diseases. Of those aged over 67 who died, 7% had more than three co-morbidities, and 18% at least two,” writes Young.
“According to the Institute, 65.8% of Italians who died after being infected with Covid were ill with arterial hypertension (high blood pressure), 23.5% had dementia, 29.3% had diabetes, and 24.8% atrial fibrillation. Add to that, 17.4% had lung problems, 16.3% had had cancer in the last five years and 15.7% suffered from previous heart failures.”
The Institute’s new definition of a COVID death means that COVID has killed fewer people in Italy than (whisper it) the average bout of seasonal flu.

Exactly the same as has been going on here since the get-go. Remember when doctors and coroners freaked by in March 2020, before the lockdowns even started, that the CDC's redefinition of "case" and their announced co-mingling of "from" and "with" would grossly inflate numbers and lead to panic? Yeah, nobody listened then either.
And the big take-away from your link? The Italian government is going to mandate vaccines ANYWAY.
WTF is the point? Truth, reason, reality, law, ethics, honesty, medical research, effective treatments ... none of these have any place in this "pandemic". Nowhere on earth.
I gather this view was arrived at by someone outside the institute crunching numbers and is not the institute's or officialdom's view. That doesn't make the conclusion wrong but it's some one's conclusion and not accepted as fact by the wider community. Great talking point though and I'm grateful that someone made the effort so we can try to separate reality from the endless propaganda.
And not to knock the Italian Higher institute, whatever that may be (government group or not?) but it has been known a long time now that this virus kills the weakened and the infirm the most. While most of these are older people, it hits the younger ones with serious health conditions too. The list of those is long, but even being quite overweight with vitamin deficiencies - a weakened and stressed immune system - can be enough. So this pandemic is perhaps the ultimate wake up call to eat right, get in shape, and to stop smoking anything. Very few of us have perfect health, but striving for it could just save your life.
