Arguing that we should only count 6 of those deaths in San Diego is incredibly disingenuous.
On the other hand, if someone had stage four pancreatic cancer with liver, lung, and brain metastases , and caught a cold and died, blaming it on the cold wouldn’t exactly be reasonable either.

Out of 333 million Americans there are an awful lot that are walking around with one foot in the grave and the other on a cake of soap. No possible societal actions we could do can keep these people alive very long.
