Wow. I hadn't heard anything about that, either. Although 84 sounds like a low number, when you have zero fatalities the upper bound of the 95% CI is still under 1%*, which is way better than the normal outcome in this population. Yes, if TPTB really cared about saving lives they would've surged in there, collected detailed data, and at a minimum set up rapid observational studies or RCTs to attempt to replicate the results, then pushed them out as recommendations if they worked.

If they really cared about saving lives.

*Edited to add: using the quick-and-easy normal approximation, the upper bound is under 1%. The exact CI has an upper bound of about 6%--however, in the >80 institutionalized population, that is still very low compared to the observed norm.

Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no power to face this great multitude that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you. --2 Chron. 20:12

Reason: Added further info about the 95% CI
