Those extra deaths Could just as easily be attributed to lockdown procedure

Or maybe a severe outbreak of bee stings. Probably coronavirus, though.

If that's all it takes for you to attribute it to corona virus then stop using

If you think some are caused by lack of medical care for other ailments, I agree

The lack of medical care is a choice the providers make on what to prioritize

Not just as easily. Would take extra effort to attribute all those to lockdown.

Just attributing it to Covid is almost as unlikely IMO. But I take your point.
