Not really. We have hundreds of millions of people. Even now we've yet to have 1% of people in this country officially test positive. Obviously the actual numbers are higher but it's not like the numbers appear inflated. If anything, the cases and deaths are undercounted. It's what happens when you have a really contagious disease and a country that isn't prepared for it. They're almost surely going to go back and figure out more deaths as we learn how the virus behaves. When it first started, people thought it was a lung thing and weren't watching for kidney failure or strokes, etc.
