I'm not sure, but aren't cytokines storms caused by the virus itself? In this case it's different because the pandemic is over, and we're dealing with non-covid related deaths. I'm not really very well equipped for a detailed discussion on these technical details, so hopefully someone with more credentials will chime in and clarify.

They're an immune response, but not necessarily to the virus itself. In the case we're talking about, they could hypothetically be a reaction to spike proteins produced internally.

Gotcha! Thanks for clarifying. Agree on the spike protein, I think that is what they're suspecting is indeed happening.
