The more deaths in the home one is pretty simple IMO - hospitals weren't admitting people and people were scared to go to hospital so more died at home. I don't think it's any more sinister than that. And strictly speaking excess deaths can only be used in total as opposed to location specifically.
There are some figures and govt actions that have made the whole situation worse - the chucking them into care homes for example, this accounted for an estimated 20k which would bring the total number right down. It's difficult to measure exactly because they may have got it from elsewhere, carers, visitors etc but it's something that is underreported and hidden in the masse.
