    Oddly enough, if your have a cardiac arrest after being shot, the cause of death is still the gunshot wound.🙄🤦🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/nickgillespie/status/1300198103186837504 …

        Mrs. Doubtfire: He was quite fond of the drink. It was the drink that killed him. Miranda: How awful, he was an alcoholic? Mrs. Doubtfire: No, he was hit by a Guinness truck, so it was quite literally the drink that killed him.

        It’s like if you died from kidney failure and have diabetes, if you didn’t have diabetes would you have died right then from kidney failure? So if you died from pneumonia while also having COVID-19, would you have died from pneumonia at that time without COVID?

        I'm seeing this 6% idea being used incorrectly a lot today. The misinformation can spread so quickly.

        Who even dies from getting shot? You die from bleeding, you die from damage to vital organs, etc..

        So for clarity im checking death cert process is like ours - first line is cause of death, like the actual thing that killed them (respiratory failure). Then the upstream cause (covid 19 caused by corona virus). Maybe also co-morbidities (asthma). He thinks that doesn't count?

        The official cause of my mom’s death was heart failure. She had terminal cancer that caused the heart failure.
