“Our national death average went up more than Covid accounts for:”
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/excess_deaths.htm
Excess deaths have been stubbornly high, about 10%. These numbers reported at the link are not stable, they continually edge upwards for about 2 months. So for October 29th the report says 6.1% excess deaths, but that will be revised and likely end up at 9% based on what I’ve seen watching this page since August. About 5% can be explained by Covid (330 per day or about 2400 per week), and arguably the 100k overdose deaths, up from 50k a few years ago, accounts for another 1000 deaths per week. But there are 5,000 excess deaths per week, so another 1600 per week is a mystery. The CDC laughably tried to blame some of the deaths on “Climate Change”, as though the climate changed from 2019 to 2022. It’s likely an increase in the usual suspects, cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, lung disease. If the excess is concentrated in heart disease then the anti-vaxxers (and anyone interested in protecting health and learning the truth) should be looking into this.
My post above is not helpful compared to the link below, which reflects a lot of careful work.

Interesting that the CDC decides to tweak their reporting methodology just as the excess deaths surge.
