3.3 Million of which also had (either) Influenza or Pneumonia
That's 46%
But are those Influenza comorbidities? Or Pnuemonia? Could be either. Which is why they lumped it together. So when you point to this and say "see! They counted Influenzadeaths as covid deaths!" they have plausible deniability and can say, no no, those are probably just pneumonia cases.
Where did you get this 40% statistic? Just want to be able to cite my source if I use that stat as a talking point
They used to have it all prepared for you. Now we have to make it ourselves (my link broke, but we can rebuild it, we have the power)

Thank you for that. Yes it's pretty annoying
