This claim is false. The CDC data shows that for the week ending Aug. 19, 2023, 1.7% of all deaths in the U.S. have died of COVID. This does not mean that 99% of reported COVID deaths weren't caused by the virus. The claim is a distortion of CDC figures. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-covid-deaths-99-percent-cdc-data-828332813362 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/09/18/cdc-covid-19-deaths-correctly-represented-in-data-fact-check/70781817007/ https://checkyourfact.com/2023/10/09/fact-check-cdc-faked-covid-deaths/ BIAS: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/slay-news-bias-and-credibility/

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1863485759379902626
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
