During the first eight weeks of this year, deaths among adults 25 to 44 were running about 25% higher than in 2019, though Covid could account for at most 10% of these “excess deaths.” A Society of Actuaries Research Institute report last November documented similar levels of excess death among young people.
Premature deaths and drug use no doubt are among the reasons for the persistent worker shortage. The White House boasts that labor-force participation among 25- to 54-year-olds has finally returned to pre-pandemic levels. But as it even somewhat concedes, the main reason is a surge in immigration, much of it illegal.
The point is, about 96% of the population who could possibly have experienced adverse effects should have started experiencing those effects a year ago, and most adverse effects happen within a couple of months after the shot, if they are going to happen at all.

I think that small uptick over a year is probably because a small number of additional people decided to get the booster after it came out last fall. The point is, about 96% of the population who could possibly have experienced adverse effects should have started experiencing those effects a year ago, and most adverse effects happen within a couple of months after the shot, if they are going to happen at all.

From the Article:

Two observations.....
1) At 25% higher this year over 2019, excess deaths in the age group 25 to 44 is nearing a catastrophic level. Why catastrophic? A good number of those excess deaths are of relatively highly educated people and because at the upper end, i.e. 45 years of age, are people in their peak earning years who have significant job and skills experience. This doubtless explains the the shortage of workers in the US. It may well explain many of the events such as train derailments, industrial accidents and cancelled flights, among other events of late. If this continues at a rate of 25% per annum the lights will be truly blinking out as to the future of the US. It will also create, if it hasn't already, a national security challenge as the Military will find itself seriously short of personnel.
2) So the problem is being alleviated by immigration, mostly illegal? Guess that explains the Open Borders policy. However its hard to believe that the immigrants/migrants/refugees are really all that highly skilled and educated. A few may be.
I would urge you to read the entire article. The Author does go onto explain possible causes and contributing factors such as deaths due to drug use/alchohol use, and a spke in Depression and misuse of prescription pharmaceuticals. He seems to avoid discussion of the possible effects of the jabs.
From personal observation, I'd have to report that where I live, the deaths due to MethAmphetamine use/fentanyl use and other illicit drug use has risen significantly. As well, Depression seems to be occurring much more frequently within the population I come into contact with.
Thoughts?
Observations?
