If we are talking "Communist states", in the past 30 years, we are talking China, Laos, Vietnam, DPRK, and Cuba; and we are also talking semi private economies.
Almost all malnutrition deaths like these are from Africa, India and the like.
Also, somewhere over 4 million yearly deaths are caused by preventable diseases such as Dengue or Meningitis. It isn't profitable to vaccinate for them, it's a human need (Socialism).
That's more to add for the toll.

Socialist economies are able to overproduce. You just haven't actually looked at conditions. The reason for "underproduction" in Communist economies is because they were already producing microscopic industry beforehand and take time to industrialize, and then form a robust consumer economy. This was indeed occurring in the 70s and 80s in the USSR/DDR to a level that was rivaling the United States, the number one superpower with vast resources, allies, an industrialization headstart, countless debt tributaries and triple ocean access.
