No doubt it happens, but those cases are the exception. NY by far has the largest number of reported deaths, and they have clarified that only those who die of CV19 and have a valid test are included. They have a separate count of “probable CV19 deaths” that are not included in their daily report that includes almost 200 a day where they are finding people dead in their homes, 8 times the normal number. It is far more likely deaths are being under-counted than over-counted.
Italy and Spain are trying to figure out why their “non-COVID” mortalities have risen several times normal, and suspect that many COVID-19 deaths were not identified. Heres a story on that:

A lot of people think this whole thing is not just a global conspiracy, but a combination of MANY conspiracies. Everything they hear or read is twisted into a new conspiracy and EVERYONE is a conspirator. It’s really quite bizarre to watch folks move from theory to theory with each new post on random unknown blogs or twitter.
NY is looking better at this point than I thought it would.

At this time 777 deaths today from CV is still awful (and does not include those in-home deaths) , but that figure of 777 looks to be leveling out.
I wonder what current TOTAL ICU usage vs. capacity is? Ditto for ventilators?
Sweden’s numbers are on the rise. They’re letting it run its course and have not stay homes or shut downs. What death number will they finally wake up?
