Can someone please provide a link where they had reduced the number of deaths from covid? I have tried finding it on the cdc website but it looked like the same numbers to me. Thanks in advance.
It's a matter of how you count the deaths. What they reported was that 94% of COVID deaths were in people with comorbidities, often 2-3 or more. That means only 6% of the reported COVID deaths were only caused by COVID, which is under 10k deaths.
For example, when my grandfather died years ago of Parkinson's disease, what technically killed him in the end was a simple case of pneumonia. That was the cause of death. But everyone involved understood that he had gotten to a point where almost any infection would've killed him, including the flu, the common cold, and presumably COVID had it existed.
If he'd been alive today and gotten COVID instead of pneumonia, he'd have been a COVID casualty. Folks like him are that 94%.
