>up to 35% of excess deaths during the early phase of the pandemic may not have been directly due to COVID-19

Does that mean the other 65% of excess deaths were or "may have been" due to COVID?

You can read the article before commenting, you know.

I did, I honestly did not feel it was very clear about ANYTHING it said.

There's so many "may" and non specific statements, etc that I'm not at all sure what it is it is saying.
