Why we checked itA claim about the timing of a change in Colorado's COVID death reporting; checkable against news coverage.
What we foundBaisley sent his letter to District Attorney George Brauchler on May 14, 2020, and the next day the state health department began reporting deaths from COVID-19 separately from deaths among people who had it, which lowered the headline count. The DA later found no evidence that death certificates had been altered.
