The UK Over-Counted COVID-19 Caused Fatalities

'Almost 33% of COVID-19 fatalities recorded by the UK's Office for National Statistics in July and August 2020 were 'primarily caused by other conditions, not related to SARS-CoV-2 virus' reported Oxford University researchers. The Telegraph reported on September 18, 2020, the Oxford researcher found 'someone who had a heart attack may have been included in figures if they had also tested positive for the coronavirus.'

The study found COVID-19 was not the main cause of death in 465 cases out of 1,617 people.

The latest Oxford study came as it emerged that COVID-19 is no longer in the top ten of England’s causes of death. Dr. Jason Oke, with the Centre of Evidence-Based Medicine at Oxford, added: 'people had been dying “with” the disease rather than “from” it," reported the DailyMail.
