For those in the serious racing demographic we are looking at 3 digit numbers in the USA who have died with COVID and I'd expect they do not have the respiratory systems those that race do. I have yet to hear of a competitive cyclist that has died. I think it maybe is only an issue for officials for racing during the "pandemic".

CDC specifies 200K die WITH COVID. CDC reports 6% have only COVID - 12,000 died FROM COVID in 8 months. They also report there are 3.6 conditions for the average death.
