Now, can pre-existing conditions be exacerbated by a viral infection? Of course! However, there are a number of complex biological processes that would need to take place, and every patient case is obviously very different. However, for Fauci to have the audacity to even attempt to make a claim that he knows with absolute certainty, that all 185 thousand deaths were caused by Covid-19 (both directly and indirectly) pivots well beyond absurdity. The CDC's presumptive cases policy, by definition, literally allows for declaring the COD of a patient as a "Covid" death, without evidence. That was the ENTIRE purpose of implementing it! Such a policy allows for very loose discretion in a time of "chaos". Therefore, it's statistically impossible for all 94% remaining deaths to be an indirect cause of Covid.
