How many of those deaths were FROM COVID and how many were WITH COVID? Big, hugh difference.
Is it? What you’re talking about if shifting cause of death around, so a death from cancer becomes a death from COVID-19. So total deaths stay the same, because all we’re doing is shifting the cause of death around; not seeing more deaths.
Except in 2020, there were 523,000 more deaths than 2019. That’s an over 18% jump in total deaths. Normal year-over-year increases are 0.3-0.7%. 18% hasn’t been seen since WWII. And for the record, cancer deaths were at normal levels in 2020. All the people expected to die from cancer died from cancer. Same for heart disease. There were just 523,000 extra deaths out of nowhere. In the same years as a global pandemic that doctors around the world reported was killing patients.
What a coincidence.
Really. It as big of a difference as you think. This is a very inaccurate talking point meant to mislead people. It should stop
