On Wednesday, The New York Times estimated that in the last month, 28,000 people died from coronavirus whose deaths haven’t been officially attributed to that cause.
“At least 28,000 more people have died during the coronavirus pandemic over the last month than the official Covid-19 death counts report, a review of mortality data in 11 countries shows — providing a clearer, if still incomplete, picture of the toll of the crisis,” said the report. “In the last month, far more people died in these countries than in previous years, The New York Times found. The totals include deaths from Covid-19 as well as those from other causes, likely including people who could not be treated as hospitals became overwhelmed.

I've been aware, and it seems pretty obvious that a couple of very highly populated states are under reporting!
Funny though one ends in what sounds like ASS, and the other end sounds like DUH!
...and numerous others, what do they all have in common: already set in life?
GROSS.
Example: Lombardy
New York:
I doubt that my friend who died will be counted as COVID death until they do tissue sampling post mortem--IF they are doing this right now where he lived (NYC). Doctor told him it is probably COVID, call if ????? happens, he was gone before the ????? happened. Going in for tests is a risk in itself, not to mention the lack of their availability.
It will take years to figure out what is going on here right now. Things that have been hiding in plain sight are starting to emerge. And yet, there's more. Always more.
And now the killer pres is checking out how to start a war in Iran for further distraction.

Grief. It's a heavy thing.
It might sound silly, but please remember to breathe deeply, eat & sleep. Please be very gentle with yourself & know that the stages of grief are not a linear process.
Also, I am guessing they might be slammed, but any hospice will provide 13 months of free gbereavement counseling. It is 13 months because that term carries the person through "the year of firsts." First bday, anniversary, holidays, etc.
Feel free to pm if youb want to chat. 
And just a guess that hospices are probably offering or planning bereavement groups via skype, zoom or phone. Groups really help us to heal..
While we consciously know we aren't the only ones grieving, somehow it is quite therapeutic to sit in group & hear others' stories. It is called universality.
Here is a list of state hospice organizations on this site if care to pursue therapy:
