Correlation doesn't imply causation though.

Yeah, if that was omnipresent before the pandemic, right? But suddenly, to observe something that's not supposed to be present increases the odds of causation.

Increases the odds yes, but needs to be controlled for that to actually determine causation.

You shouldn't conclude that based on the study and you -certainly- should not be giving health advice as if that were the truth.
