If there are hundreds of thousands of "excess deaths" due to Covid-19, they are barely noticeable in the big picture.

The damage exacted by politicians and "experts" in the name of Covid-19 however, has been far more devastating than the disease itself.


Are you now acknowledging that your claim that there was no excess deaths is false.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but our leaders are treating the U.S. population like our IQ's are at the MORON level.

U.S. Deaths from Covid-19 are minor, which is why 2020 will finish with approximately the same overall deaths in the USA, as 2019, 2018, etc..

From Congressman Mark Gonsalves: twitter.com...



Only has been pointed repeatedly the us won't finish with approximately the same overall death count.


1.1.2021

From the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

Through 12/31/2020: 2,913,144 Total USA Deaths.
Source: www.cdc.gov...

For 2019: 2,854,838 Total USA Deaths.
Source: www.cdc.gov...

USA Deaths per day in 2020: 7,981
USA Deaths per day in 2019: 7,821

BIG Picture = Not much difference.




Its always a good idea to read your own sources properly

The numbers you are using for 2020 excludes the entire month of January and has incomplete numbers for November and December.

This has already been explained in this thread repeatedly .


Re: www.cdc.gov...

The 58,796 for 2/1/2020, are the number of deaths that occurred in the final week of January 2020.

And, keep in mind that only 6% of all Covid-19 deaths are 100% caused by Covid-19. 94% of them are people who had 2 or more pre-existing medical conditions before contracting Covid-19.


I don't think anyone is arguing that people with pre existing conditions are more vulnerable, doesn't make them any less dead.

That is one of the reasons the excess deaths figure is an important indicator of if Covid really is killing more people .

The figures you linked show excess deaths per week, did you look at that? There is categorically no doubt that more people are dying in 2020. You either haven't read your own link or are lying, which is it?


The point is:

1) Death counts are not linear. They will vary from year to year and you cant simply say that more deaths is caused specifically by Covid. It is like how a city may have 600 murders in one year and 700 murders the next. The reasons for the increases can be quite complicated and can't be put on any one factor necessarily ( maybe gang members had more head shots vs winging people in a prior year).

2) The deaths may be more a function of the lockdown than covid itself. The focus on Covid means people aren't getting cancer, stroke, heart attack, and other treatments.

1. It was the OP decision to use a direct year on year comparison (and got it wrong). The CDC uses a 5 year average to calculate excess deaths .

The increase is way beyond normal year on year change

2. We wouldn't expect the impact of indirect deaths to be as immediate. Missed appointments may lead to increased deaths in the future but we would not expect that level in the time frame.

There is also other strands of evidence from testing and death certificates showing the excess deaths are mainly being caused directly by Covid.

....also less people are dying in car accidents as a result of the lock down.

The preliminary estimates in the US, exceed 3.2 million deaths. This will be the largest percentage increase of deaths since 1918, which saw the Spanish Flu and World War I.

Also the life expectancy in the US is down significantly with those estimates

Tough to deny COVID is not a significant cause of death.

Now think that thru a little further OP? Out side of Politician and
virologist no med pro at all in any way. Bill Gates forecasting death
numbers in the millions. And describing the outbreak as far back
as 2010. What I'm saying is Gates prediction of millions is still in play.

And the only way we could reach the numbers he forecast now? Is
thru the vaccine iincompetence ( Cuomo and nursing homes) that will
be blamed on it's development. Because they had to rush the vaccine.
WARP SPEED.

We should be hunting these pigs.

One piece of SCUM who the media needs to start ignoring is Dr. Anthony Fauci.

He's now saying the VACCINES WILL NOT WORK against the Covid-19 virus.

They will only lessen the symptoms of the disease.

Ignorant and Egotistical and Influential = A BAD COMBINATION!: finance.yahoo.com...

Fauci is making medical doctors look like incompetent fools, according to a nurse I spoke with 3 weeks ago. They're trying to distance themselves from his blabbering that shifts with the wind.

We can talk about Fauci. NP threatening the Trump Amins. In
2017 with a " Surprise" disease outbreak during his administration.

I don't care who the hell he is or what the hell he knows he
can't see the future. He doesn't have pre cognition, he ain't
no prophet and he's no charmer. So the only way he was correct
in his prediction? FOREKOWLEDGE! And again we we're pre
informed because he as a member of the big club. Knew it
would fall on deaf ears. We see that all the time. They pre
inform us cause we'll blow it off. They're not stupid that's for
sure.

Pretty wicked huh? To have that kind of power over men? So
you can mask most of them on the planet? Lead em to slaughter
and be left with the ones smart enough to survive. The only
part of humanity still of some use to them. In a Lab most
likely.

"Now saying" being October 26 when the article was dated...

He was also not saying the vaccine will not work, he was explaing what the vaccine will actually do. Prevent people becoming ill rather than prevent infection.

Again you either haven't read your own link or are just flat out lying.

3,171,913 total deaths in 2021 with December data far from finalised.

Seems safe to say the premise of this entire thread was wrong.
