I don’t know about any of those individual causes of death, but overall deaths are up significantly. Do you have an alternative explanation for the rise, if it’s not COVID?
I believe his point is that a lot of those deaths are happening, but being marked COVID because the person had COVID.
Also, half of all COVID deaths happened in a nursing home. 55% of all residents of a nursing home die within the first 6 months and the mean is 5 months for all nursing home residents.
Other countries are not counting it the way we are counting

I guess I am confused on what he means to that end, specifically. COVID doesn’t kill through a new symptomatic mechanism. It attacks both the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. So yes, the proximate cause of death will be, e.g., pneumonia, heart attack, or stroke. But COVID causes those symptoms. As far as car crashes go, I will wait for him to show evidence that someone who died from blunt force trauma, laceration, etc., from a car crash, was actually classified as a COVID death.
