This image is stupid.
The missing colonades at the top are just faded out because of overexposure. Actually blow up the image and you'll see it.

"The 'six percent' figure represents those people with only COVID-19 on their death certificate. This will be very unusual," Lessler explained by email. "First, COVID-19 causes many of the co-morbidities mentioned, which are respiratory conditions. So, having, for example, respiratory failure on your death certificate in addition to COVID-19 is not really having another cause of death, as your coronavirus infection almost certainly caused the respiratory failure. Second, many of the other co-morbidities, such as heart disease, are common in the US and increase your chances of dying from COVID-19, so may be contributing factors to death but not necessarily the root cause."
He concluded, "The most important thing to remember, is that no matter what the co-morbidities listed are, pretty much all of these people would have lived longer, probably a lot longer, if they had not been infected with the virus."
