However, if the patient is confirmed via test and died of heart failure, then the cause of death must be Covid-19
Are you a medical examiner?

This was from 3 days ago, but yes only FOURTEEN people have died from Covid who had no underlying conditions. Why isn't that fact mentioned???
I have to say it's truly incredible how much animosity and spite people have displayed to me upon me showing these figures to them.
They will defend their own subversion to the death.
From 2017 to 2018, age-adjusted death rates decreased for 6 of 10 leading causes of death and increased for 2. The rate decreased 0.8% for heart disease (from 165.0 in 2017 to 163.6 in 2018), 2.2% for cancer (152.5 to 149.1), 2.8% for unintentional injuries (49.4 to 48.0), 2.9% for chronic lower respiratory diseases (40.9 to 39.7), 1.3% for stroke (37.6 to 37.1), and 1.6% for Alzheimer disease (31.0 to 30.5). The rate increased 4.2% for influenza and pneumonia (14.3 to 14.9) and 1.4% for suicide (14.0 to 14.2). Rates for diabetes and kidney disease did not change significantly.

I called this out on the 10th of march on my podcast. People are losing their minds and believing what they hear from the media and their governments. Society is being manipulated and gaslighting all the way through this. It's scary how its all happened, but as I've said I think we will be out of lockdown (in the UK) around the end of April mid-May time... End of May at the very latest. I'm more worried what's to come in 5/10 years' time.

Falling in the 85+ age bracket in the US gives you an expected 14% mortality rate for this year. That's just total expectancy -- not COVID-19. I imagine the COVID-19 mortality is quite high in this group, all the more so because those people are likely to have several underlying conditions as co-morbidity factors.
But we shouldn't talk about co-morbidities because we're trying to terrify Susan that her kids are in immediate peril, even though they have 99.9% rate of recovery even without co-morbidities. It is safer than the flu for her kids. If you're under 55, you've got at least a 99.8% chance of recovery -- and that's using confirmed cases and ignoring the 4-20 times number of asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic which have not qualified for testing, so the mortality rate is probably an order of magnitude lower.
We're victims of a terror campaign that's collapsed the economy.

They are apparently under orders to report any death where the person tests positive for COVID as a COVID death.
For example, the infant in Chicago who died and was listed as a COVID death? That's not conclusive at all. It had been in the hospital for four weeks prior with intestinal blockage and another very serious problem ongoing. Did COVID kill it or did it die of those other problems? They were doing an autopsy to try to determine that, but the headlines blamed COVID anyhow and that's what is listed.
There was the case of a 60-year-old man who suffered a fatal head injury from a fall at home. He died from head trauma, but because he tested positive for COVID, he got listed as a COVID death.
There is the case of the 17-year-old out in California that had it's own thread here. Recall the controversy about the urgent care having turned him away? They wanted to list him as a COVID death, but it later turned out he had extenuating circumstances and septic shock that had killed him. He was removed from the list of COVID deaths, but the mayor says he still considers that kid a COVID death "in his heart", or something.
There's Alabama where they keep two separate lists: one of deaths that are presumed to be COVID and one that are confirmed COVID. The second tally is lower. Guess which tally is used in the national aggregate sites? You'd be right if you guessed the first tally.
The first COVID death in the state of Kansas was a man who actually died of cardiac problems. They tested him for COVID posthumously because they noticed symptoms, and he turned up positive. So he is listed as a COVID death, but did the virus cause his cardiac trouble or was he going to have it anyhow? Did it kill him or the virus? Doesn't matter ... he's a COVID death because of his positive test.

What I find that pisses me off is people wearing rubber gloves just throw them in the streets. (not all ppl that wear them). I personally know someone that is young fit and healthy but sucked into the government and media bull#. They will not even leave their house (apart from to go into the garden) and if they do they've said they will be wearing a mask. It's sad to see people's critical thinking gone. I think they should teach critacil thinking in schools lol.

Many countries are in fact calling deaths where the deceased tests positive for the virus after death, "complications due to covid 19", I haven't as yet found figures that support just a Covid 19 death alone without other underlying factors. The majority of deaths however appear to be pneumonia as primary with covid 19 listed as secondary complication
