It's a straight forward leap from my proposed cause. This virus spreads from from person to person, so if you don't expose yourself to people, you are rather unlikely to get or transmit the virus. And if people don't get the virus, they can't die from the virus. The leaps from your suggested causes are much more complicated. If the second wave doesn't result in more deaths, then maybe it was one your proposed causes, and it'll be interesting to see how they contributed. If deaths do spike again, then could you please stop spamming Hacker News with anti covid "skepticism"? Because if you continue to post and share these things in spite of a pile of dead bodies, you'd be complicit in the deaths from the third wave (if any).
