Also, covid is not listed as the primary cause of death on a cert. It is only listed as a contributing cause of death that leads to death by the primary cause.

Someone could have a heart condition that is being treated by meds or a pace maker. Tbey could live for years. They get covid and die due to heart failure. Covid would be listed as a contributing factor that led to the primary cause of death. Heart failure (or whatever the technical term). CDC has detailed guidelines to follow that are based on the request from The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists
