Approximately 10,000 patients were already in hospice care at the time of death. Critics argue that the inclusion of these cases, along with deaths from heart disease and accidents, led to an overcounting of primary COVID-19 fatalities.

The report notes that a significant portion of recorded COVID deaths involved patients already in hospice care or suffering from terminal illnesses. Media outlets like CNN are criticized for presenting these figures without context regarding pre-existing conditions.

### Ventilator Mortality Rates and 1918 Pandemic Mask Study

A large analysis of US COVID-19 patients found that the majority did not survive after being placed on mechanical ventilators. Separately, a paper co-authored by Dr. Anthony Fauci regarding the 1918 pandemic suggests that most deaths were actually caused by bacterial pneumonia linked to mask-wearing. Additionally, a respiratory technician noted that the ventilators produced by General Motors lacked the fine-tuning controls necessary for delicate patient care.
