I agree that comorbidities increase the deadliness of covid.
And you agree that excess death statistics show hundreds of thousands of additional deaths this year correct?
So currently the only explanation for these extra deaths is covid, and that without covid statistically these extra people would not have died of their existing conditions.
Do you have an alternative explanation?
That's not what I am asking you.
I don't care about your opinion but your reasoning and logic.
"For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.9 additional conditions or causes per death."
Did CDC state that only 6% died from covid here? First step.
I could highlight the sentence if it makes it easier for you?
Did CDC state that only 6% died from covid here? First step.
No, they said 6% of those that died from covid were in apparent perfect health. The other 94% had preexisting medical conditions that made covid more deadly for them. That's what "additional conditions or causes per death" mean. Covid + additional risk factors.
So now we've got that cleared up, you agree that excess death statistics show hundreds of thousands of additional deaths this year correct?
"No, they said 6% of those that died from covid were in apparent perfect health."
How old were they?
"Apparent perfect health"
^ opinion.
Fact: "a piece of information presented as having objective reality"
From CDC: "For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned."
