Grateful sir for this lecture. My take home here is that a confounder can directly cause the effect, and must be related to the exposure. It sticks better this way. Thank you so much

You are welcome. You are right. Also, it is not on the causal pathway. If you are looking at the association between eating burger and heart disease, then high cholesterol in blood will not be a confounder as it is on the causal pathway.
