The whole 17K thing is a red herring of the reddest type.
Just because you had a co-morbidity doesn't mean you wouldn't have lived a long and happy life without catching COVID.
But what it does show you is that COVID is/was a culling virus that takes out the weak and the vulnerable. Young, fit and healthy are unlikely to die from it.
As well as vaccines the NHS/ Govt should also be pushing the narrative that getting fit and healthy will also reduce your chances of dying from it............unless that upsets {tinfoil} their big pharma paymasters {tinfoil}
