This really shouldn't be surprising and it's not "bombshell" news as some are describing. We've known for awhile that those with co-morbidities are more likely to die after becoming infected with the coronavirus. (1/2) https://twitter.com/CBS21NEWS/status/1300459581571764224

The report states that for 6% of deaths, ONLY COVID-19 is listed. The others list contributing causes along with COVID. In May I reported that more than 73% of the deceased had an underlying health condition. https://www.readfrontier.org/stories/half-of-oklahomas-reported-coronavirus-deaths-come-from-care-facilities-such-as-nursing-homes/

My point is, this wasn’t a secret being brushed under the rug. Reporters have been writing about COVID being more dangerous for elderly and those with underlying conditions for months. Just because it’s not the only condition listed, it doesn’t mean it didn’t contribute.

If you're confused about death certificates/ how medical professionals look at deaths and causes, contributing factors to deaths, please ask.
