Not sure how to respond, those are deaths w/ covid, which depends entirely on the jurisdiction from where they are counted. PCR test within 60 days of death, good enough to call it a covid death.

You can't seriously still be going down this line of argument.

There are at least a million Americans, and many more globally, who are dead when they otherwise would not have been. Denying this is insanity.

The average age of covid death is ~80, you're saying all those folks would still be alive if not for covid?
