Lol dude if you died from a heart condition that was exacerbated because of covid, covid is absolutely responsible. If you died because you didn't get care because the hospitals were overwhelmed and you had to wait for emergency care, covid was responsible. If you had a scheduled procedure cancelled and your condition worsened to the point you died because of it, covid was responsible.
You can fuck all the way off with your bullshit hairsplitting. Excess deaths are still way up and covid is responsible.

Or we can look at the excess deaths when compared to years before the pandemic.
Just in 2020 alone:
It's possible that the official covid count is actually an under count as any people that died without being tested for covid are kept out of it even if they did have covid.

Unlikely...more likely an overcount as they counted people who died with covid as covid deaths.

You're asserting this based on your gut feelings?
Looking at the excess deaths for just 2020 and the total covid death count it would not shock me if the covid death counts were actually under counted.

An opinion piece?
You realize that's no more authoritative than anyone else's opinion right? They put opinion in big letters at the top to make that clear.
But okay let's look the piece:
>But are these Americans dying from covid or with covid?
The piece doesn't say anything definitive and just asks the question.
