No, because there are also many social media reports that patients dying of "viral pneumonia" are not being attributed to Coronavirus - simply due to the overwhelming of medical professionals and the inability to sequence everyone's samples.

They aren't spending time confirming that dead patients had coronavirus when they are in crisis mode.
