It reminds of the movie Sleepy Hollow when the Jailor says "if you find them in the river then the cause of death is drowning". When Johnny Depp argues that it could be the case but the person could also have been dead prior to being thrown into the river he gets scoffed at for even suggesting such.
I'm just saying with the way the media loves to tout the death toll we need to be ****ing sure what is being reported is accurate.

It can be similar to someone having a massive stroke.
That person doesn't usually die from the stroke itself, but let's say aspiration pneumonia. So while the pneumonia was the reason for the death, the cause of death is from the CVA, since that started the cascade of events that lead to other issues which would have otherwise not have been present.
In many cases the pneumonia may kill people after they acquire COVID but COVID is still correctly labeled the cause of death because the pneumonia wouldn't have been present without the COVID.
Does that help?
