Couple this with the fact that we know that the virus is extremely widespread. 1 in 5 New Yorkers have been infected. So it is very possible that a lot of people that died of cancer or heart disease coincidentally had asymptomatic COVID-19 at some point and then were listed as a 'COVID-19' death.

Yes in theory if a person dies and then is tested or believed to have covid 19. They died from it and gets listed as death.
