It's also likely that people are dying of other things because they can't get healthcare due to the hospitals being all full up with Covid patients.

This podcast, which is long but quite excellent, gets into death under-reporting, and how small tweaks to the numerator turn a reassuring picture to a dire one: https://peterattiamd.com/michaelosterholm/

If you want the same scientist saying the same things with more entertaining banter, Osterholm also did Joe Rogan's show a while back and touched most of the same subjects. But even now, I do not have time to listen to a three hour podcast. And Attia is a doctor, so his questions are more insightful and linear than Rogan's often meandering inquiries.
