    I wonder how big the death toll would be if you factored in indirect causes of death from covid. Like, not actually from the disease, just the factors that arose from it (isolation, job loss, etc). I had a friend that committed suicide in early June because of being physically isolated from his support group. I wonder how many others were/are in a similar situation.

      I just worked with a woman that fied of a uti because she had covid so no one was checking on her.

      I know of a few people who have had heart attacks because of all the stress caused on their system. So those peobably aren't marked down as covid deaths.
