I would imagine the only thing these deaths have to do with covid is the impact that it has had on any folks lives.Plenty are suffering financially with no end in sight. If he was a teacher he won't have worked since March with no hope of a pay day anytime before November if the government are to be believed. Perhaps people put off trips to the doctors / hospital for fear of the bills they may incur?

RIP and condolences to the family.
