Russian doctors must be jumping for joy, or out a window,
at such success in keeping their coronavirus patients alive.

1. Apparently Russia is counting the cases differently.

If somebody dies from pneumonia, cause of death is listed as pneumonia, not covid, even if pneumonia was caused by covid.

2. "differently" is one word for it.

3. Trump must be thinking-why didn't US do that?

This way, if somebody with cancer dies from covid, list the cause of death as cancer.
Heart attack, diabetes, etc.
Covid deaths will be really low.

7. Love it, but we shouldnt stop there

If someone over 65 dies without diabetes or other conditions we could blame instead, we should always just put it down as cause of death: 'old age'.

8. Or a person sick with COVID-19 falling out a window.

4. Just what the Trump Admin. is pushing for here.

That or no counting at all.

5. It's the vodka. Or it's gravity. Or it's vodka and gravity.

First you drink, then you fall out a window.

6. You may be onto something there.

70% alcohol hand sanitizer kills the virus. Drink up!

9. Truly a credit to the world and such an honorable leader!

11. Everything the Russians do now days is designed to fuck with someone or to fuck something up.

Russia’s numbers, like Saudi Arabia and a few others, are a bad joke.
