After several comments on #TheLakerNews FB page and in my own personal FB inbox that I was not telling the truth on the child dying related to COVID19, I reached out to the province Sunday afternoon (a weekend but wanted to get it asked). #FallRiverNS #Halifax 1/5
Here is what the spokeswoman told me: "The death of a child is unimaginable, no matter the circumstance. A family is grieving and our hearts are with them. We do not discuss the specifics of any individual case. What we can talk about is process. #FallRiverNS #Halifax 2/5
"When we report a COVID death, we capture both those who died due to their COVID infection or where COVID was a contributing factor." #FallRiverNS #Halifax 3/5
"When people have underlying conditions it becomes more complicated, but if COVID may have contributed to the death, we report it as a COVID-related death. #FallRiverNS #Halifax 4/5
"In situations that are more complex, such as a person who dies with multiple contributing factors, the cases are reviewed by clinicians and/or public health to determine whether COVID-19 may have contributed." #FallRiverNS #Halifax / end
