There was a 16% increase year over year in all cause mortality rate from 2019 to 2020. The numbers are in. More than 400k additional deaths over expected in the US. The fake deaths thing is so 12 months ago.Those numbers are fake news.

There is normally a decreasing death rate per capita per year as human lifespans get longer. From 2018 to 2019 for example it dropped 1.2%. The 16% increase from 2019 to 2020 was a per capita number. So there goes that theory. The excess deaths have actually carried over into 2021 so your other theory that everybody died in 2020 of Covid who was going to die in 2021 of natural causes anyway is also bunk.Couple of points. How many would have died in 2021 or 2022 naturally? Half? There is also a growing death rate per year. Doesn't matter...the healthy should never of quarantined.
It’s really difficult to say what exactly the cause was for excess deaths in 2020. The government decided to classify anyone who died and tested positive for Covid as a Covid death rather than having a normal primary cause and a virus as secondary. On top of that there were a lot of excess deaths due to lockdown. Missed medical appointments, deaths related to unemployment, overdoses, suicides, the murder rate was up and who knows what else. Those numbers would extend into 2021. I have no idea what the actual covid death total was, the government decided early to completely change how we respond to a virus and crap went downhill from there.There is normally a decreasing death rate per capita per year as human lifespans get longer.

It’s not difficult at all since doctors and medical examiners stated Covid on the death certificates of 370k+ last year. And suicides and homicides, overdoses, etc. are actually tracked. Suicides were up roughly 2k people from 2019 to 2020, homicides were up roughly 3k from 2019 to 2020. Automobile accident deaths were up about 4K, and overdose deaths up roughly 15k (have been trending up every year even before Covid). So while you are right, there were upticks in other causes in 2020, they are quantifiable and only a portion of the difference between excess deaths and what is captured as a Covid death.It’s really difficult to say what exactly the cause was for excess deaths in 2020.

It’s actually just the deaths from covid that are the problem. Which ones died from Covid bvs with Covid and how much do we trust PCR testing? The actual number of Covid deaths are probably far less than what has been reported.It’s not difficult at all since doctors and medical examiners stated Covid on the death certificates of 370k+ last year.

Lumping all demographics together, the US case fatality rate (CFR) of 1.8% is better than almost all of the European developed nations. Had been for most of the Trump admin and now into the Biden admin. Deaths per 100k population is pretty low too. One would think this was the most important stat of the entire thing but it’s pretty much ignored for some reason.It’s actually just the deaths from covid that are the problem.

Because the US has a rather high percentage of obese and unhealthy people, I would imagine we fared worse than other developed nations. Also, the US has a very large elderly population (and population in general). With the median age of Covid death being 78-80 and the elderly being the most at risk group, our country probably had it worse there too. With those things as a caveat, it’s still hard to believe the death toll is correct. Is it 25 % too high? 50? 75? Hell, maybe the numbers were under reported because there wasn’t really a good standard for what constitutes a covid death. I don’t know, I’m just a dummy on the internet.
Where did the excess deaths come from? Even if you remove suicide, overdose, homicide, accidental deaths, etc., there are still close to 400k excess deaths for 2020. Come on man.

As @NinjaKnight has reminded me on numerous occasions, you mistakenly assume logic plays a role in WC discussions.Where did the excess deaths come from?

Maybe you’re right. I have a habit of testing ideas that I don’t hold to tightly to see what I can flush out. I do it on message boards instead of real life because of the anonymity. Trying to test conspiracy theories in face to face conversations gets weird, especially if the person agrees with you. I’ve said it before, but I don’t always believe the crap I spew on here (or at least hold it further away from my core beliefs), it’s just safer to filter ideas on a message board. Good responses, thanks.Where did the excess deaths come from? Even if you remove suicide, overdose, homicide, accidental deaths, etc., there are still close to 400k excess deaths for 2020.

The Fed Cares Act incentivized putting Covid on the death certificate, additional fed money if they did when hospitals we're hurting. That's why everyone who died with Covid suddenly died from CovidIt’s not difficult at all since doctors and medical examiners stated Covid on the death certificates of 370k+ last year.

So what really killed the extra 400k that died last year? Some other mysterious illness?The Fed Cares Act incentivized putting Covid on the death certificate, additional fed money if they did when hospitals we're hurting. That's why everyone who died with Covid suddenly died from Covid
So what really killed the extra 400k that died last year? Some other mysterious illness?
drugs, alcohol, not going to the hospital for fear of covid, suicide. There's 330 million people in the country, if you lock them in their house for a year it's not good for them, that's why we've never tried it before. Maybe covid killed the people in poor health that the flu would have killed over the next 3 years.So what really killed the extra 400k that died last year? Some other mysterious illness?
Like I stated previously. The number of those things are known. Suicides up 2k. Homicides up 2.7k. Overdoses up 15k. There is still 400k unaccounted for. They aren’t mistaking drug overdoses, suicides, and murders for Covid.drugs, alcohol, not going to the hospital for fear of covid, suicide.

Someday, probably in another lifetime, I hope you figure out how this infectious disease business works.On pace for another 70k infection day. Dementia man? Thought you it figured out.
Two more weeks, Trump fault for not acting sooner, triple masks and triple shots and we'll have this enough under control that we may not need the big white floating hospital.Let me guess. Something around sit in your basement and wear gloves. Got it. I'm good
LOL I noticed you didn't post a link for some strange reason.Unfortunately, there is no federal leadership so the mantle of leader of the National Governors Association coordination effort with the federal government is none other than Gov. Cuomo of New York.
And people have the temerity to praise the Biden Administration’s COVID efforts with a straight face.
We all know they can’t all live down to the journalistic standards (or lack thereof) of CNN and the New York Times but here ya go: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/a..._biden_vp_skip_weekly_covid_calls_145651.htmlLOL I noticed you didn't post a link for some strange reason.
Let me guess: You were fed some red meat by Breitbart or one of their ilk.
More red meat bullshitYou have whackos in your party that want to end red meat consumption. That isn't a conspiracy theory.
chin up, princess. what's got you all pissy this time?Meat Anon losers like @_glaciers are down bigly this morning.
At least the Swiss use half-way market-sound approaches.AOC wanted to put in place a ton of regulations on farmers to reduce their green house emissions to essentially wipe them out. Yes that is what it would do. Most of your farmers are small time and can't spend years raising cows plus the expense of co2 scrubbing.
Never underestimate the lefties with stupid ideas. Hell we have beta governors that still haven't opened schools and restaurants at 100% capacity. When it is proven there was no difference in covid numbers between beta states and free states.
