Original Note:
COVID was the third leading cause of death for 2021. This is distinct from 'deaths with COVID' (deaths by other cause while infected, even those hastened by COVID) and the increase in heart attack and stroke caused by past COVID infection. It is if anything an undercount. https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2022/s0422-third-leading-cause.html https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss/coronavirus/cause-of-death-data-quality.pdf https://www.acc.org/latest-in-cardiology/articles/2022/05/25/12/10/covid-19s-impact-on-heart-disease-and-stroke-mortality
