If you die from an blood clot or say an embolism or heart attack or kidney failure while having severe COVID 19, you will not be listed as dying from COVID but from the cause. Even if it was caused by COVID. It is a way to reduce the number while not actually falsifying records.

The key phrase is dying with COVID vs dying from COVID. They are mincing words to obfuscate the real cause of death.
