‘The reporting of COVID-19 deaths will be based on the causes of death and not on the temporal connection between infection and death, the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) said.’
In Finland, since the beginning of the pandemic in early 2020, deaths that have occurred within 30 days of confirmed COVID-19 infection have been monitored.

According to THL, at the beginning of the pandemic, it was important to identify all deaths that occurred after COVID-19 infection. Death was often found to have a clear connection to the infection.However, at this stage not all infections have a clear causal connection to the deaths, and a large number of other deaths have been included in the reporting, THL noted.
“It is important to draw attention specifically to deaths caused by the COVID-19 virus. In cases where COVID-19 is recorded as a contributing factor to death, the actual cause of death is something else,” said THL's chief physician Tuija Leino.

Test your Knowledge on Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Coronavirus is a large positive-strand RNA virus that is surrounded by a protein envelope. The virus obtains its name from the S protein spikes on its surface, which resemble a crown. The overall pattern of increasing coronavirus cases is shown to spike up with the “second wave” of COVID-19.
With spiking effects of the second wave of coronavirus, the best way to keep it at bay is to follow COVID-appropriate safety practices like wearing a mask, regularly cleaning your hands, and coughing into a bent elbow or tissue along with physical distancing (6 feet about 2 arm's length), that may help evade the severity of COVID-19 infection.
