A PCR test or any test for Covid only tells you that you have a Covid infection. It may be asymptomatic or a very mild infection which is usually the case if you have been vaccinated. NFL football players that have been vaccinated may test positive and within 4 or 5 days they get two negative tests and they are on the field.Oh, I'm not curious about it; it didn't disappear. "Experts" simply needed to borrow those deaths for a time in order to convince you of something.
It's no different from them using the fraudulent PCR-test in order to convince you that conditions are worse than they are.
The design of PCR tests are such that they err more on negative tests than positive tests. This may or may or not be the correct political decision but medically it is certainly the right decision. The data I saw had the accuracy of the PCR test at about 95%
