CDC: COVID-19 “ONLY CAUSE MENTIONED” IN 6 PER CENT OF TOTAL CORONAVIRUS DEATHS Other 94 per cent had serious illnesses. The CDC has published an update that acknowledges “Covid-19 was the only cause mentioned” in 6 per cent of total coronavirus deaths. “For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned,” states the CDC on its website. “For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death.” The issue was the subject of a controversy after Twitter deleted a tweet retweeted by President Trump which said that the CDC had “quietly” updated its numbers “to admit that only 6%” of people listed as coronavirus deaths “actually died from Covid,” since “the other 94% had 2-3 other serious illnesses.” Despite the language of the tweet being essentially true, the tweet was deleted anyway and CNN subsequently published an article labeling the tweet as a “QAnon supporter’s false claim.” Wow CNN says only 6% of COVID deaths were COVID only 94% were deaths with additional factors like heart disease and obesity https://t.co/DaXnVEqCP8 pic.twitter.com/fiAp5CGF9H — Tim Pool (@Timcast) August 31, 2020
