Here is an issue. I cannot get an accurate number of deaths in the US for 2020 vs 2019. Everytime I search I cannot get a simple number all I get is different political opinions. Where are you getting your raw numbers from with no commentary or political skew involved. I can’t find the US death number for 2020 on the CDC website.

I had to hunt for the info myself. I agree it isn’t very easily accessible:

Number of deaths in the US in 2018: 2,839,205 (https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db355.htm)
Number of deaths in the US in 2019: 2,854,838 (https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db395.htm)
Number of deaths in the US in 2020: 3,378,126 (https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/COVID19/index.htm - Preliminary but still rising)

You’ll notice that from 2018 to 2019, there was a 0.5% increase in total deaths in the United States. In 2020, there was an 18.3% increase over 2019. That’s unheard of outside of incredibly extreme situations. Like World War II.
