The question to be asked is, "would that person have died from that illness, then and there, had they not had covid" if the answer is yes, then covid not a factor, if no then covid was a factor. In almost all cases the nature of covid makes it a contributory factor in at least 80% of deaths with covid (overseas studies).
If the numbers were so out of whack then they would be revised, but they have not, showing there's a high chance that covid was a significant reason they died on that day.
That almost sounds logical. The deaths are in the vulnerable groups, mainly the old and the infirm, obese or with other health issues. These groups are a minority of the otherwise healthy population. Therefore to tell the not-at-risk and asymptomatic majority that people are dying every day and they should be afraid is misleading and disturbing.
The ABS publishes this information but it is concerning that the health depts simply say people are dying. If they ever do refer to age it seems they refer to the occasional young person who dies but without mention of the underlying health issues which really caused the death possibly with the aggravation of covid. This is manipulation of the information at the direction of elected leaders and unelected health officials.
I had a quick look at the somewhat vile and shadenfreudenistic sorryantivax website which some on here are really enjoying laughing about and I see many of the dead appear to have been overweight, maybe even technically obese. The USA has (or had) nearly 40% of the population obese. Maybe this has something to do with the high rate of deaths there. Junk food for thought.
