I had read the chart wrong.

Deaths are up 23% above average.







23% above average isn't that high compared to some places, some places are 40% or 50% above average.

Given the covid death count reported and yet only being 38,000 above...does that mean less people are Dying of other causes than on average?

Were these people going to live forever?

Yes Covid is bad for certain groups & sometimes young people get it & for whatever reason their body can’t fight it & they die

But destroying millions of lives is not the answer

She also shared the story of how the volume of coronavirus patients has impacted patients suffering from any number of non-COVID illnesses. In this case O'Neal said a patient has had a surgery delayed three times since February.
That patient's cancer is now incurable.

Virus gets in the masks, people don't wash them at night. As simple as that.

Murder is also up. And deaths from cardiac events due to fear of going to the hospital

Many of the excess deaths are Covid, probably 80-110k. Overdoses alone are up 80-100% in most of the US.

The hysteria and shutdown probably killed 30-60k so far this year.

I know some think the death toll for Covid is well under the 30,000 that's been reported by the CDC


What? The CDC has reported over 140k. So yea, based on your info maybe 140k seems overblown.

Wait so we only have about 300,000 people die each year? In a country of 330 million? How is that?

What do you feel like the average annual rate of death should be?

Edit: yeah you’re right that has to be wrong

No

All oof the lockdowns have affected death rates from other causes. For example, automobile deaths must be way down?

Where did you get that number? The way im interpreting this graph, the y axis is showing deaths per week. so approx 40k (low end estimate) x 52 is over 2 million.

The graph is also seeming to say 149k more people have died this year than normal
