"The [Colorado Public Health] department now says 1,150 Coloradoans who died had COVID-19 but only 878 of those deaths were “due to” COVID-19." - from the article.
Omg, real accurate numbers from one state! Now if we can extrapolate this ratio to the whole country, which is not unreasonable, and reduce the number of CV deaths by 24%, we come up with a total of 66,551 actual CV deaths, vs. 87,568 died having CV but not always of CV.

When I think about it, this is just about exactly what Dr Deborah Birx is rumored to have said. She said 25% iirc.
