No one seems to be dying of the flu or pneumonia this year either. At least I can't find the numbers. I'm sure the numbers will get audited & sorted out, some time after the election :-)
Almost every "Covid death" has a comorbidity, as that is who is most vulnerable, those with other underlying pre-existing health conditions. However, it seems impossible to determine how many of those would have died absent Covid, and when.
To the extent it hurries anyone with a co-morbidity to the finish line earlier than otherwise would have happened, I'm sure we would all agree that is a bad outcome too.
