@SuperSoynic_Speed, I 100% get what you mean, claiming 94% of people who have covid on their death certificate come from car accidents, falling down stairs is an obvious exaggeration (though Dragonbane’s exact words were “people who would’ve likely died anyway” but that has nothing to do with the point I’m trying to make), but one thing Dragonbane mentioned as being turned into covid is heart attacks:
For example: you have one person with aids and one with heart problems, they both caught covid (this could be switched out with the flu or anything else)
The person with aids has a lowered immune system, therefore doesn’t have the antibodies to properly fight the virus and dies, the cause of death is covid, not aids, that just aggravated the virus
The person with heart problems gets covid, is highly stressed ’cause of the fear of the virus, gets a heart attack and dies, the cause of death is a heart attack, not covid, could the virus aggravate the already present heart problems? Possibly, but that doesn’t change the cause of death
That’s what autopsies are for, a person can have multiple illnesses or injuries, but ultimately the cause of death will be one
