While the Omicron variant, which was dominant during the fourth quarter of 2021, generally caused less severe cases of COVID-19, many U.S. life insurers still reported significantly high mortality levels in the period.
U.S. regulatory data shows net death benefits in the fourth quarter of 2021 were up 5.6% from the year-ago period. That is a striking figure given that the fourth quarter of 2020 saw net death benefits increase 28.8% from the same quarter a year earlier!
Credit Suisse analyst Andrew Kligerman listed Reinsurance Group of America Inc. and Lincoln National Corp. as having withstood some particularly challenging mortality losses.
Unum Group similarly posted elevated mortality in its group life business for the fourth quarter of 2021, reporting that its results were "significantly impacted" by COVID-19 claims.
Sun Life Financial Inc. reported "significantly higher-than-expected mortality" related to COVID-19 among the U.S. working age population during the period.
The Hartford Financial Services Group Inc. not only experienced elevated excess mortality but also higher short-term and long-term disability claims.

My mom passed a little over a month ago and her life insurance paid very quickly. No red tape no stalling. I've seen some doctors state the double jabbed will be dead in 3-5 years blah blah blah. I don't beleive it but what if they are just 25% right!>! a reply to: carewemust

I'm unvaccinated and had the original covid19 in 2020, two confirmed covid infections in 2021, and the one 'cold' I've had this year I didn't even bother getting a test coz why bother when it generally just doesn't kill otherwise healthy people.

It's way worse if you had the vaccine since the vaccine has negative efficacy to omicron. If you are "unvaxxt" and survived then that's incredible since it has a 100% fatality rate.
I just read your post, I'll admit that I have no idea which tests the UK government issued me when I posted my DNA type swab thing back.

You have no clue what you just had, because the tests are cluseless...
Anyone who believes what the tests tell them is clueless...

I only did it to potentially use as supporting evidence in court, if the govt ever try to claim that I have no immunity, while I continue to refuse the reminders to get vaccinated lol

A plot to Nationalize the Insurance Industry? 🥶
