Today, a Republican congressman went on the House floor and tried to downplay the deaths of children from COVID-19. huffpost.com/entry/republic…
"Many of these children had ... underlying medical conditions, making them more vulnerable to severe COVID-19 than the average child," said Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-Penn.).
"Meaning that many of these children died with COVID, not of COVID."
"Meaning that many of these children died with COVID, not of COVID."
"That’s real science, not political science."
Except... had these children not become infected with COVID, they would not have died from it.
😞

As one Twitter observer put it, "The bathers died due to loss of blood but not because of shark attacks that ripped them open."
