Something, something, comorbidities...
Sorry, I forgot that only applies to COVID deaths.
Obviously people misunderstood. I'm very much pro vaccine - fully vaccinated and triple boosted.
I was making reference to the fact that anti-vaxxers were citing comorbidities in regards to COVID deaths to downplay the numbers while refusing to do so for deaths shortly after vaccination. This was especially galling in light of the fact that the first groups vaccinated were the most vulnerable: the elderly.
