According to overpass turbo there is the small number of 394 such nodes
(historical hospitals) remaining in the US (excluding Alaska and
Hawaii). Given that this is bad data that actually might have disastrous
consequences, I would suggest that fixing these (and other GNIS junk
that might be misleading) has a slightly higher priority than updating
population numbers.
