    That's right. 6% *solely* from COVID means most deaths had other complicating factors - BUT the overwhelming majority of the other 94% would be alive today *but for* getting COVID.https://twitter.com/CalebJHull/status/1300137524828999681 …

    Lots of tweets going viral on this but I’m pretty sure this is an inaccurate conclusion drawn from the CDC site. COVID-19 causes organ failure and other conditions and from what I see CDC is just saying that 6% of people SOLELY died from the virus. https://twitter.com/ASlavitt/status/1300098832605286401 …

        Obesity is a co morbidity. Diabetes is a co morbidity. Look around America. We are the most chronically obese and diabetic in the world. We are a sitting duck for COVID. To say that only people with comorbidities die, is to doom most of America to death.

        If hospital resources are scarce and you can’t be appropriately cared for? Elective surgeries are as the name implies… elective not emergent.

        true enough, but this is the reason why locking down healthy people accomplishes almost nothing.

        You don't know that. With so many deaths being nursing home patients, and their median life expectancy being 3 months, a large % of those dying with Covid wouldn't be alive today even if they had not contracted it.

        Some %, sure. But lots of people live on for years. My dad was in a home for 7 years.
