The claim only 171,000 Americans died from COVID-19 is false and misleading. 1,143,724 Americans died from COVID-19 and COVID-19 was listed as the underlying cause of death for 87% of these deaths. There were over 171,000 COVID-19 deaths in 2020 alone https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/covid19/mortality-overview.htm https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2778234
