Why it's misleading to say only 6% of COVID-19 deaths are caused by the virus
Misinformation is spreading online after a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicated 94% of the people who died from COVID-19 had contributing health conditions.
The statistic does not mean only 6% of patients died from the coronavirus, as some have falsely claimed. It simply means that the other 94% had preexisting medical issues or developed another health condition as a result of contracting COVID-19, such as pneumonia or a respiratory illness.
Some death certificates may have listed both COVID-19 and obesity, both COVID-19 and diabetes, or both COVID-19 and heart disease.
