I don’t think doctors are exaggerating red death to get more money for the hospitals. Maybe they, collectively, might be over attributing red death as a secondary cause of death. But if some 80 year old comes into the hospital with a low O2, lung problems and a fever, it’s far more likely than not that they have coronavirus, and if they die, it was a cause of death.
