We surpassed a million long ago, this is only them finally acknowledging that number.
People forget how many lives were lost in the firsr 4-5 months of 2020 who they couldn't definitely confirm died of COVID due to there not being an accurate test at that time in addition to the inability to have most of those people undergo a thorough autopsy since hospitals and morgues were so overwhelmed.

Covid's toll in the U.S. reaches a once unfathomable number: 1 million deaths
"It's an exponential number of other people that are walking around with a small hole in their heart," one widow said.

The U.S. on Wednesday surpassed 1 million Covid-19 deaths, according to data compiled by NBC News — a once unthinkable scale of loss even for the country with the world's highest recorded toll from the virus.
The number — equivalent to the population of San Jose, California, the 10th largest city in the U.S. — was reached at stunning speed: 27 months after the country confirmed its first case of the virus.
"Each of those people touched hundreds of other people," said Diana Ordonez, whose husband, Juan Ordonez, died in April 2020 at age 40, five days before their daughter Mia's fifth birthday. "It's an exponential number of other people that are walking around with a small hole in their heart."
While deaths from Covid have slowed in recent weeks, about 360 people have still been dying every day. The casualty count is far higher than what most people could have imagined in the early days of the pandemic, particularly because then-President Donald Trump repeatedly downplayed the virus while in office.
"This is their new hoax," Trump said of Democrats in front of a cheering crowd at a rally in North Charleston, South Carolina, on Feb. 28, 2020. "So far we have lost nobody to coronavirus."
A day later, health officials in Washington made the inevitable announcement: a coronavirus patient in their state had died.

Now, more than two years and 999,999 fatalities later, the U.S. death toll is the world's highest total by a significant margin, figures show. In a distant second is Brazil, which has recorded just over 660,000 confirmed Covid deaths.
Dr. Christopher Murray, who heads the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington School of Medicine, said although this milestone has been looming, "the fact that so many have died is still appalling."
And the toll continues to mount.
"This is far from over," Murray said.
Each death causes a ripple of lasting pain. Diana Ordonez's husband worked in information security management and had just gotten promoted before he died. When he wasn't working, he loved to be with his family.

Covid Omicron Variant BA.2.12.1 Spreading Quickly Across United States; Related Cases Up Nearly 100% In Past Two Weeks
In February, the first few cases of two new, more infectious variants were identified in the Northeastern United States. Dubbed BA.2.12.1 and BA.2.12.2, these sublineages of the BA.2 variant made up only 1.5% of newly-sequenced positive tests before March 19.
But, warned New York State Public Health officials, the new variants are thought to have a 23%–27% growth advantage over BA.2, which itself had an estimated 30% growth advantage over the original Omicron. About 6 weeks later, the numbers support that theory.
For the week ending April 16, BA.2.12.1, which seems to be the more dominant of the two, made up 19% of all newly-sequenced positive Covid tests in the country. Centers For Disease Control data released today show that BA.2.12.1, now makes up 36.5% of all newly-sequenced positive Covid tests. That’s a jump of close to 100% in the past two weeks.

I guess you didn't actually read the article and decided to add "Consequences of having Covid" which appears no where in the article.
Here's some direct quotes from the article you didn't read:
"Most of the claims for deaths being filed are not classified as COVID-19 deaths, Davison said "
"The CDC weekly death counts, which reflect the information on death certificates and so have a lag of up to eight weeks or longer, show that for the week ending Nov. 6, there were far fewer deaths from COVID-19 in Indiana compared to a year ago – 195 verses 336 – but more deaths from other causes – 1,350 versus 1,319. "
"...hospitals across the state are being flooded with patients “with many different conditions,” saying “unfortunately, the average Hoosiers’ health has declined during the pandemic. "
"The number of hospitalizations in the state is now higher than before the COVID-19 vaccine was introduced a year ago, and in fact is higher than it’s been in the past five years, Dr. Lindsay Weaver, Indiana’s chief medical officer, said at a news conference with Gov. Eric Holcomb on Wednesday. "
" But the majority of ICU beds are not taken up by COVID-19 patients – just 37% are, while 54% of the ICU beds are being occupied by people with other illnesses or conditions. "
So it's not Covid that all of these extra deaths are from. I wonder what could be causing it? Did anyone read the Pfizer document dump from a couple of days ago? It's not good news.
Did you go to school on the short bus? Or just poor comprehension?
your cherry-picked quotes don’t disprove the point of the article or the Twitter thread. Try again, chief.
Support china 
But you added your own fake editorial "Consequences of having Covid" which was a straight up fabrication. The article doesn't say the excess deaths are covid related, but implies the opposite. Add you cherry picked quotes and prove me wrong.
So it was poor comprehension...
One of the points of he video that both the article and Twitter thread reference is that Covid causes damage that leads to death AFTER "recovering" from a bout with Covid
Article:
The second fucking tweet sums it up for you. It's in plain English:
Literally, the consequences of having Covid
