I didn't miss the point. You did.

Noting that a gunshot wound on a leg is not necessarily deadly implies that there was only one reported incidence of gunshot 
wound attributed to COVID-19, and that wound was to a leg. That would be disinformation, so I pointed it out.

I simply don't care what the percentages might be; only that deaths have been mis-attributed which, to me, corrupts the 
credibility of the data and the statistics, including percentages, based thereon.
