Overcounting is one egregious factor....intentionally creating circumstances to exacerbate the death count is quite another:


With hospitals standing near empty except for Covid-19 wards, an edict such as the following leads one to believe cost savings/death panels have been instituted against the nursing home industry....

Patients diagnosed with coronavirus have been placed in nursing homes in Dutchess County under a mandate from the state Department of Health.

"No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the (nursing home) solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19," reads the letter, which was addressed to all nursing home administrators, directors of nursing and hospital discharge
planners.

Nursing homes have been at the center of the pandemic in recent days. Across the state more than one in four coronavirus-related deaths — 3,060 of 11,586 as of Tuesday — had occurred in nursing homes or adult care facilities, according to state data. In Dutchess, 11 deaths have occurred in nursing homes.
