Spain is now blatantly fiddling its Covid 19 death figures - in time to welcome back foreign tourists perhaps?

Various newspapers have been relaying the news that Spain had been reporting single figure or even zero deaths some days. This result has been achieved by the sleight of hand of changing their methodology to only include deaths that had actually happened and were registered the previous day. So they don't include any deaths that have delayed registration, which is most of them. Clever eh?

On 25th May they also reduced their cumulative death total by nearly 2,000.
