New data reveals 105 Coronavirus deaths in West Bengal contrary to the official data of state that says only 33 died due to Covid-19

The new data which was released on Thursday stated that state-registered 33 'Covid-19 deaths' and 72 other deaths where patients were suffering from Covid-19 but died of comorbidities.

The Mamata Banerjee led West Bengal government is terming a person a coronavirus casualty only if he or she does not possess any other disease at the time of death that is a complete contradiction to protocols applied. Deth of people having comorbidities like hypertension, diabetes or cardiovascular problem etc are not being categorized as coronavirus deaths.

The new data which was released on Thursday stated that state-registered 33 ‘Covid-19 deaths’ and 72 other deaths where patients were suffering from Covid-19 but died of comorbidities.
