My wife and I had two funerals to go to in the last week for 59-year-old women. At my wife's 50th reunion over 100 people from her class of around 500 had already died, the vast majority within the last several years. They didn't die from Covid... they died mostly from cancer, strokes and heart disease. My 13-year-old cousin had a stroke that almost killed him and left him with brain damage. All of these things
This represents an unusually high number of deaths which nationally has resulted in a highly unusual drop in life expectancy in the US and around the world. There have repeatedly been stories that are still being taken out of circulation quickly that people who have had the Covid vaccinations have a higher rate of death from various causes than those who did not get them.
So, you are right to wonder about this when a younger person dies. At the two funerals we just went to it was the elephant in the room.
At 68 to have 20% of one’s peer group dead is normative
