What percentage of doctors do you think would be willing to falsify a death certificate to get that money? 50%?

I don't think, in many cases, that they see it as "falsifying a death certificate" so much as going along with the flow. If there is ANY possibility that COVID could be a factor, they're "giving it the benefit of the doubt". They're "doing their part" for the battle against the Great Pandemic.
