This kid was not obese. In fact he was very athletic tall and lean.

Then its drugs. The kid probably overdosed and the news used it as an opportunity to raise hysteria.

Tall and thin....Probably heart complications of Marfan's Syndrome. Maybe asthmatic...who knows? The MSM wants a dead kid from this so badly...

The teenager's death was among 18 new COVID-19 fatalities reported in an update from the Louisiana Department of Health on Thursday.
According to the Orleans Parish Coroner's Office, while the youth had contracted COVID-19 before dying on Sunday, the cause of his death remained under investigation.
That's strange wording almost like something else going on health wise that may have caused death but also happened to be infected.
Something similar happened in Collin county although to much older person and they didn't know he was infected until after he died after being in hospital with at least what they thought were existing issues. They tested samples after he died, and he was positive. They went ahead and listed death in virus death toll while saying autopsy still was needed to determine exact cause of death. Never heard what autopsy found, but they have changed anything about listed death as part of virus deaths.

Another post eluded to a heart condition that they weren’t aware of.

And according to his father he had cardiac failure due to an undiagnosed heart condition. Which does happen in teenage/young adult males.
If I die in a car accident but turns out I have asymptomatic Coronavirus, does that mean I count as a COVID19 death?

Could be
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Ever hear those freak stories of adolescent male athletes at a game just dropping dead? There was a video of a basketball player this happened to.
Genetic condition in which your heart grows too big and suddenly obstructs outflow. Goes undiagnosed and you essentially just drop dead. EXTREMELY rare. But I think it is more prevalent in black people? Definitely males I know that.
Could be a possibility

The dad said last night that his son was infected with COVID-19, but that he died due to heart failure, not the virus.

LDH still has that 17 yo listed as one of the corona virus deaths.
They are just reporting anyone who had the virus at death. Not because it’s the cause. Which is fricked up.

A majority of the deaths have/had some major health issues and covid is just a part of reason of why they are dying.

I may be wrong but doesn't Covid19 break down your immune system? So if the virus in his body caused his heart condition to flare up which ultimately took him out.
I have no problem with him being apart of the Covid number.
