“For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned “
You do understand that most contagious diseases act this way, right? They soften you up and what ever else you had wrong with you pounces. There are, for example, about 1350 “FLU was the only cause mentioned” deaths out of 30 million SYMPTOMATIC cases in your average flu season. So that would be some 60 million or so cases including asymptomatic cases for the flu versus 7 million symptomatic and asymptomatic cases of CCP-19, and 12,000 “just CCP-19” deaths.
Let’s see, 1350/60,000,000 versus 12,000/7,000,000. Hmm. It appears that “just CCP-19” is about 75 times as deadly as “just flu”.
Stop pushing this distortion of the statistics for your solipsist, narcissistic, insouciant agenda. If you really want to have, need to have, a special cause to rail about, go protest at Pelosi’s or Schumer’s house about their interference in the President’s right to nominate judges. That’s a much better and far more honest cause.
Thou doth protest to much. Did you not see that the role of comorbidities is what I point out here for in which the 6% is mentioned as perpective: "One answer would be that COVID-19 itself rarely, if at all ("For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned "), is what slays a person, but that of per-existing conditions (comorbidities).

That is simply an invalid comparison as concerns lethality, since not only is the 2019-20 flu season not over - and thus far is more deadly to children - but the flu can be more more deadly than that of this year. Apart from the 1918 flu, the Asian flu of 57-58 with an est. 116,000 deaths is the rough equivalent of approx. 200,000 Americans die (since the population size in 57-58 was about half of what it is now), but which saw nothing proportionally akin to the all-ages COVID restrictions. And the death toll would have been substantially great if Americans then were in the poor health of today, in which when over 40% of Americans are obese, and this condition is the first or second primary factor relative to serious and fatal COVID-19 infections. With the overwjhelming majority of deaths being among the aged (as I am).

Actually the two are related, for the long-term all-ages "safe mode" shutdown - which is having and will have its own very substantial death toll - is unreasonable, and ignores the actual cause, which is poor health, but hysteria is promotes as part of the leftist lust for power and preeminence.
