We HAVE had an increase in deaths called "excess deaths" over the normal average baseline for recent years. It's hard to refute
Today, on November 27th, The News-Letter officially posted their reason for retracting the article, stating inaccuracies in the analysis. I am frustrated at the explanation, and I think it is disrespectful to Dr. Briand’s hard work putting data together and doing an honest analysis. If her analysis was to be contradicted, then at least an equal-level analysis should be done to provide more data and thus a new conclusion. Dr. Briand and her work deserve such respect.
I have received many messages asking the reason for taking the article down, and so I would like to officially express my opinions here. I even got emails saying that thanks to me, people now will not be wearing masks or practicing social distancing. They called me “a COVID denier and a minimizer” and that I have no idea the damage and the lives cost in me writing such an article. I was devastated to receive such accusations, but I stand my ground. The goal is never to undermine the effects of COVID-19 but to suggest a possible over-exaggeration in death numbers due to the pandemic.
Professor Briand also responded to the pulling of the article, saying “Their decision to retract the article was their own. Yanni Gu did an excellent at reporting the content of the presentation. The full presentation is available at: Covid-19 Deaths: A Look at U.S. Data – YouTube. I explain during the presentation where I found and downloaded the data from, so anyone can easily replicate my analysis.”

Why was it deleted?
Supporting this particular study is grasping at straws.

This is a misrepresentation of the data. CCP-19 kills people in the same proportions as the aggregate of other causes of deaths. Therefore, the proportion of deaths by age group will not change.
The total deaths will be higher, and the overall life expectancy will be lower. Some things will offset the CCP-19 deaths, such as reduced accidents due to less travel and lower rates of infectious diseases due to mitigation.
Went to post the student paper they linked to on Facebook, and it gave me a warning and asked if I still wanted to post it...
Over 250,000 people die per day on earth... To date, this virus has added about 5 extra days of death... It’s peanuts in comparison to malaria which kills roughly one million people per year, every year.
The good news, or bad if you prefer. Over 360,000 new births occur every day. So it only takes less than a week to make up the losses from this virus.
The overall kill rate is roughly 0.02%... Vs. the Spanish flu which killed 3% of the earths population and actually reduced the earths population during 1918/19. This virus will have absolutely no effect on the earths overall population growth.
Bttt
But what does Tony Wuhan Wormhead Fauxi say?
Just as predicted. Hopkins was in on this global reset plan before covid was created. Suddenly, Biden wins and COVID doesn’t kill?
