He has to be covid-19 positive to be recorded as such. However, yes, he could die of internal bleeding, but have covid and he will be recorded as a covid-19 death. The article states that 88% of the dead had other pre-morbidity, sometimes two or three.

I think the fact that the hospitals are overwhelmed is killing people a lot quicker than they would've taken.
