But it is not possible to say this is an ordinary year in terms of deaths. Something killed a bunch more people than usual this year.
    I don't know if this is true or not. More Reasons Not To Fear COVID – William M. Briggs As usual, we appreciate your critical review of the study. As usual, I present it here since you won't see it elsewhere.

    I do know that in a country where it is normal for 2.7-3 million people to die every year, 300K is not "a bunch more people," especially considering the greater picture.

    Again, in the US, the Deadly Covid-19 Pandemic has killed 251,715 out of a population of 328,239,523, for a DC19 of 0.0767%. In 2018, there were a total of 2,839,205 deaths in the US (for some reason, 2019 is not available yet).

    In the UK, the Deadly COVID-19 Pandemic has killed 53,775 out of a population of 67,866,000, for a DC19 of 0.079%. In 2018, there were a total of 541,589 deaths in England and Wales.

    And please remember that anybody who falls off a ladder or gets killed in a car wreck that tests positive for the Deadly COVID-19 Virus appears in the first number, so that the real percentage is lower. MUCH FUCKING LOWER.

    I wonder how many more or less people will have died as a result of violent crime in the U.S. this year. We just broke a 20 year record for murders here in Austin.

    Probably all of them. This is Austin.

    “ The current COVID-19 testing regime is a complete farce. It is carried out using methods that health authorities know full well will lead to a huge number of false positives. Which is the whole point. COVID-19 is the Trojan Horse being used to justify the implementation of global totalitarianism, which the World Economic Forum has dubbed The Great Reset and insists is for our own good.”

    Though making clear the need for further research, the article was being used to support false and dangerous inaccuracies about the impact of the pandemic. We regret that this article may have contributed to the spread of misinformation about COVID-19.

Since June, there has only been excess death relative to the previous calendar year. However, the calendar no longer describes the American lifestyle, so these comparisons are less meaningful.
