This is a direction from NSW Health to all medical practitioners in NSW.
The direction inter alia states that if a person dies with covid, there is no need
to report the death to the Coroner.
"A death that results from COVID-19 is considered a natural cause death. It is expected that in most of these cases a Medical Certificate of Cause of Death (MCCD) will be issued and the death WILL NOT be reported to the Coroner."
The Coroners Act includes the following:
"Objects of the Act
(c) To enable coroners to investigate certain kinds of deaths or suspected deaths in order to determine the identities of the deceased persons, the times and dates of their deaths and the manner and cause of their deaths,
(e) To enable coroners to make recommendations in relation to matters in connection with an inquest or inquiry (including recommendations concerning public health and safety and the investigation or review of matters by persons or bodies)
Meaning of reportable death...
(1) For the purposes of this Act, a person’s death is a reportable death if the death occurs in any of the following circumstances—
(a) the person died a violent or unnatural death,
(b) the person died a sudden death the cause of which is unknown,
(c) the person died under suspicious or unusual circumstances,
(d) (Repealed)
(e) the person died in circumstances where the person’s death was not the reasonably expected outcome of a health-related procedure carried out in relation to the person,
(f) the person died while in or temporarily absent from a declared mental health facility within the meaning of the Mental Health Act 2007 and while the person was a patient at the facility for the purpose of receiving care, treatment or assistance under the Mental Health Act 2007 or the Mental Health and Cognitive Impairment Forensic Provisions Act 2020.
(2) (Repealed)
(3) In this section—
health-related procedure means a medical, surgical, dental or other health-related procedure (including the administration of an anaesthetic, sedative or other drug), but does not include any procedure of a kind prescribed by the regulations as being an excluded procedure."
WHY is it necessary for the NSW Government to issue a direction to all medical
practitioners that if a person dies WITH covid the death WILL NOT be reported
to the Coroner...
There is no such direction if a person dies from influenza, or cancer, or
parkinsons....etc etc...
WHY a direction for covid...
THIS SMELLS....
