The lockdowns have been far more lethal than the virus itself. People have not been able to or have been afraid to get treatment for the real killers. My mom who is in her 80s fell down a few days ago and refuses to go in to find out why she is still in so much pain.
This could be something important. If this illness was as bad as the gov-media-industrial complex says, we should have a large spike in deaths this year. Thank you for posting this.
Another fun fact is that us life expectancy declined three years in a row —2015, 2016, and 2017. This was the first time for such bad outcomes in 100 years. This means Obamacare hurt US health care. As it unraveled US life expectancy increased in 2018 and 19.
This means at least a 100-200k needless deaths caused by the ACA each year.
(difference of 0.1%)
Is that is about the same chance someone has from dying from C19. Or, is the odds even lower?
Good find but I believe there might be issues with comparing Provisional to the final count.
The 2020 count is a Provisional count the other is not.
I think there is a difference as Provisional data is not yet complete according to the bottom of the CDC page for 2020.
count for the ‘2020’ data started week ending 2/1/2020, thru 11/14/2020. So 10 weeks short of full year. Did your calculation consider the non Jan 1st data start?
This doesn’t surprise me. Deaths from Covid are largely attributable to comorbidities, meaning a lot of these folks would have died anyway. Then factor in the effect of lockdown on traffic accidents, recreational accidents such as drowning and stupidity, stranger danger when one ventures into the wrong place at the wrong time, etc. and it is probably going to pretty well wash out.
