Well, he had the original pneumonia for weeks and it hasn't killed him, catches Covid and dies in 3 days. Must have been a coincidence. /s

  Not to mention the fact that the nurses and doctors are exhausted from treating Covid cases. Even if he hadn’t caught the virus, there’s a good chance the diminished quality of care he received from the overburdened medical professionals contributed to his death. Thus, it’s definitely fair to list Covid as the cause of death. Indeed, it’s obvious and not fairly deniable that but for Covid, all 100-year olds hospitalized with pneumonia would have every reason to think they would live for several more decades.
