More specifically, fewer people are now dying than would have been the case had there been no Wuhan epidemic. As one doctor colorfully put it, the people who die from covid are generally those who had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. I have spent some time studying covid death certificates (i.e., certificates that have the word “covid” somewhere on them), and I agree: when you look at the conditions from which most covid victims suffered, it seems remarkable that they were still alive.
What this means is that most of those who have died with covid on their death certificates would have passed away before long in any event. There were, indeed, a significant number of excess deaths over demographic predictions in the U.S. in 2020. But it seems that absent covid, most of those people would have died some months, or perhaps a year or two, later. If that hypothesis is correct, we should see a lower than demographically predicted death rate over the next year or two.
And, in fact, that is what is happening. This chart, showing total mortality in the U.S., is from the CDC web site. It shows that during 2020, a larger number of Americans than predicted died. It also shows that the mortality rate is currently plummeting, and we have entered the zone where total deaths are fewer than they would normally be. So in a sense, those Wuhan deaths are now being made up:
year-old doesn’t live to be 86. But the fact that we have devastated the lives of our young people over the Wuhan epidemic is a crime.

The bummer is that many of those who would have died soon anyway should have been able to die with loved ones beside them.
Somebody I have knowledge about have been dying from terminal lung cancer. Then he got Covid. Everybody thought that would be the end of him, but no, he seems to be doing pretty well. Cured from Covid and even the cancer is in remission.
Just my 5c. The world on Medicine is a strange world.
Yep. Medicine is strange. So advanced, yet so primitive in some ways also.
His body did this, not docs or medicine.
[sorry]Nursing homes hardest hit.[/sorry]
We’ve had 35 covid deaths in our mostly rural county of 24,300 people. Two of them in the nursing home my wife works at. As in the article, she said they were in pretty rough shape to begin with. Probably would have died from the flu or a cold or something within a year.
It’s the eugenics flu. Old and unhealthy and/or very obese and unhealthy.
Needles and sutures. All the pain. Hand-cutting and sewing people like garments.
Damnit!!
I wrote last summer that Covid-19 was gong to “front load” the death stats for this coming winter season - and it did!!
BUT, in many parts of the U.S., a person hit/killed by a vehicle who was a “maybe” for Covid may have been counted as a Covid death, to hype the disease. is that proper?
