Exactly. It's a very bad time to get cancer, an organ transplant, a heart problem or trauma needing ICU. The base rate of deaths from those conditions is well known, so in time we'll be able to see which patients died as a side effect of corona (due to being more vulnerable or due to a shortage of medical treatment). Obviously complicated by the lack of road trauma and industrial accidents, and increase in in-home causation due to being off work (and we shouldn't exclude domestic violence, alcoholism, anxiety, suicide, robberies).
