If that happened, those were more than outweighed by deaths in rural places and others where it wasn't registered as covid deaths. So if anything it's an undercount. Otherwise why would there suddenly be so many excess deaths during the pandemic beyond the ones labeled as due to covid? > In May 2021, following an analysis by the IHME that the true count of fatalities due to COVID-19 in United States was above 900,000, Anthony Fauci said that he had "no doubt" there was undercounting of COVID-19 deaths.[3] A study published in The Lancet in September 2020 also pointed to significant undercounting.[54][55] Undercounting has been reported from Virginia[56] and California.[57] A 2021 scandal involving New York authorities during the administration of Gov. Andrew Cuomo involved undercounting or an alleged cover-up of COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes in 2020.[58][ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undercounting_of_COVID-19_pandemic_deaths_by_country#United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undercounting_of_COVID-19_pand...
