100s of people are dying in their homes in NYC each day & haven’t been included in COVID counts. That’s starting to change, but many death tolls we‘ve seen are *confirmed cases,* aka lab-tested. It’s another inequality issue.Other cities shld note &track COVID-likely cases too. — PolitiTweet.org

The excess death data in NYC is so so upsetting and staggering and still isn't, as far as I know, being integrated into the official counts.
