In some cases it comes down to the rules of the country collecting the statistics.

In Australia if there its a clear cut irrefutable non covid related cause of death even while infected with covid it will not be counted as a statistic.

So if the death is from trauma after running your car into a tree at high speed, are shot or commit suicide for instance while infected with covid its NOT counted as a covid death for statistic purposes.

But in other countries it may be. I think USA count these deaths in their statistics. Or if they aren't anymore they were originally.
