So that argument was Covid caused the crash. Unless he was so frail and weak he passed out mid ride en route to the hospital, that's a tough (impossibly dumb) sell.

ORLANDO, Fla. - A person who died in a motorcycle accident was added to Florida’s COVID-19 death count, according to a state health official.

FOX 35 News found this out after asking Orange County Health Officer Dr. Raul Pino whether two coronavirus victims who were in their 20s had any underlying conditions. One of his answers surprised us.

“I don’t think so. I have to double-check,” Pino said. “We were arguing, discussing, or trying to argue with the state. Not because of the numbers -- it’s 100…it doesn’t make any difference if it's 99 -- but the fact that the individual didn’t die from COVID-19…died in the crash. But you could actually argue that it could have been the COVID-19 that caused him to crash. I don’t know the conclusion of that one.”

There are still two people in their 20s on Orange County’s data list for coronavirus deaths.

The real issue here is that the hospital doesnt want to give back the $35K its going to get from the feds for him to be listed as a Covid Death.

Was he wearing a mask?

I think that's it, too. Although it's $13K, not $35K, iirc. Still incentive, though.

Mask and no helmet in Florida. Still say EVERY LTC resident in my state that goes to the hospital and dies had COVID for the past 4+ months.
