Can't you read? The gray line is the average of the past 5 years.

See where it says, "Number of deaths per week from all causes, 2020 vs recent years."

Sorry. My eyes aren’t as good as they used to be; soft blur.

I’ve seen data presentations suggesting the opposite, e.g. here:
https://off-guardian.org/2020/03/30/covid19-yet-to-impact-europes-overall-mortality/

How do we reconcile them? Maybe the data are evolving.

I don’t even post anymore because when hit with facts, some here begin the childish insults.

The problem some people are having is the causation of death, or the process of death.

Covid-19 affects people in different ways.

Some have lung issues. Some cardiac issues, kidney problems, etc.

When the planes flew into the World Trade Center buildings......some people died in the plane on impact. Some died in the buildings on impact.

Cause of death could be listed as Blunt Force Trauma.

Some burned to death. Cause of death Fire.

Smoke inhalation. Cause of death Respiratory Arrest due to Smoke inhalation.

When the buildings came down.....many who were on other floors away from the impact of the air crafts died from traumatic asphyxiation, blunt force trauma, etc.

All died from a terror attack. All died because planes flew into the buildings, but all died from different reasons.

Covid-19 cause sepsis, which causes renal failure, which causes heart failure.
It’s anyone’s guess what the M.E. might put on the death certificate.
Kidney failure
Coved-19
Heart failure
Sepsis
All of which would be true. But not all are listed as a cause of death.

So someone can die from Covid-19 but the real cause as a result of Covid-19 is a blood clot in the lungs.

That confusion give people like FluBros their opening to exploit the numbers and claim the stats are fraudulent.
