Top row: Deaths reported publicly by week
West to East: Provisional death counts by CDC when death occurred, columns representing the week when CDC added them.

Kyle Lamb created a chart using data from the CDC that shows the number of COVID-19 deaths reported by the CDC and the weeks the death occurred. In the chart below he shows the total number of deaths from COVID-19 reported by the CDC in the top row in grey. These totals change as each week passes with new deaths being reported per week as is expected.
In a typical mortality table you should see a few deaths being reported in week one and many more in the following few weeks but then the number of deaths reported that occurred during a specific week decrease as time goes by. After a few weeks this lag in reporting diminishes and eventually all deaths are reported. This is typical in the insurance industry where the industry accounts for deaths being reported on a consistent rate over time with very few claims reported after a few months from the date of event (i.e. the date someone died). This may seem morbid to those not in the insurance industry but this is how it is done. Rarely are there jumps in reporting in prior periods unless something odd is going on (e.g. fraud).
What Kyle Lamb shows in his analysis is that the CDC is reporting deaths on a weekly basis. Many of the deaths are reported in the first few weeks after the death occurred (see cells in red, orange and yellow).

Color striping indicates a way to track trends based reporting week. First red = 1st week of data, Orange = 2nd, etc.
Most recent four week sum of deaths by reporting week:
July 11: 2,340
July 4: 2,868
June 27: 3,064
June 20: 5,226
June 13: 5,665
June 6: 6,809
May 30: 7,769
May 23: 10,960
May 16: 11,545
May 9: 9,387
May 2: 12,590— Kyle Lamb (@kylamb8) July 11, 2020
Lamb reports what he is seeing:
By analyzing this data, we can see if states were changing prior deaths to "probable" or if they're backlogging. When we do this, we can combat the increasing deaths narrative. What we found this week is that the couple of spikes that were seen in 'public' numbers were not spikes

Another individual took the data from the CDC used by Kyle Lamb and created a chart showing anomalies in CDC reporting. During this past week, the number of deaths reported included deaths from April which were suddenly reported this week.
Kyle nice work. Same data, but with a "heat map" showing the peaks with respect to each column. pic.twitter.com/0ruiO7qgO3

Another individual put together a chart based on the CDC data that shows that deaths have been decreasing since April – no matter what the MSM says:
Alistair, given what we now see in the CDC's Deaths by Date of Death data, which is broken out only by week, you can make the case that the date of peak deaths (assuming a smoothed curve) falls somewhere around the end of the WE Apr 11 or beginning of WE Apr 18. pic.twitter.com/34IsMIHSen

The deep state continues it attack on our Republic.
Figures never Lie, But Liars Figure.
It was “clear” from the beginning, watching Dr. Birx give an explanation of the method of classification, it was pure BS.
So, to get it straight.... the new deaths are those deaths in April that were asymptomatic deaths but now were tested and shown to be covid?
We’re swamped with lies and the dupes that believe em.
They are doing like NYC, they are reclassifying the cause of death. Chasing the Fed Dollars.
Going back and time and making revisions.
And the Insane are Running the Asylum.
Pure Political Theater.
Yes. Weasel words.
What would be interesting would be to compare all FLU (not Covid) deaths in Q2 of 2020 with all previous year FLU deaths in Q2...
I’m confused. Are they double counting/padding or are the “spikes” from lag. The article seems to say both.
They couldn’t track muddy dog prints across their kitchen table
Texas doesn’t report a death is CV unless the person tested positive. If you die at home before you get to the hospital, then you’re not counted on the charts. IOW, Texas is most likely under counting.
The most absurd data for the week of July 11 comes from the backlogs of weeks May 16 and 23 which are colored green and beige respectively. That is from a backlog of almost 2 months ago yet they show 1235 brought over from May 16 and and 1056 for the week of May 23. What makes it especially absurd is when you contrast it with the data for the previous week ending July 4 in which May 16 backlog shows only 40 and May 23 is only 23. No way you can have such a YUUUUGE backlog jump in just a week.
May or may not be related, but definitely noteworthy:
Bogus deaths spikes:
7,260, New York state, July 9th
956, New Jersey, July 2nd
957, New Jersey, July 3rd
Some other states have shown spikes that were dubious, but none I think comparable to the above.
Geee Ya Figure?
Funny without graphs I saw this Months ago
