Social Security reports nearly 400,000 more beneficiary deaths in 2020 than 2019 © Getty Images Last week, for the first time, the Social Security Administration (SSA) released information on the number of beneficiaries who died in 2020, the year the COVID-19 pandemic began. There were nearly 400,000 more beneficiary deaths in 2020 than the agency tabulated for 2019, representing a 17 percent year-over-year increase.

Double-digit percentage increases, year-over-year, were found for all beneficiary groups including retirees, spouses, widows, and the disabled.

SSA’s statistics almost certainly reflect the concentration of COVID-19 deaths among the populations the agency serves. The CDC's death data, which includes all individuals and not just Social Security beneficiaries, indicates about 500,000 more deaths occurred in the United States in 2020 than in 2019. The CDC estimates that approximately 375,000 deaths in 2020 were due to COVID-19

CDC's death data? That sounds sinister.

[Red Badger]

That’s how they ‘solve’ the Social Security ‘problem’.................

[ronnie raygun]

15000 from governor Cuomo alone

[T.B. Yoits]

What is the death count contribution from Governors Phail Murphy and ‘Nursing Home Killer’ (NHK) Cuomo?

[martinidon]

How many of those votes after they died?

[SMARTY]

How many did Cuomo account for?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The plan is working!

When you blow the lungs apart with ventilators, that sort of happens.

Stay out of the nursing homes in Democratic states—that is the lesson here.

Does he get a protection detail for life?

Don’t forget Wolfe and Whitmer.

While replacing them illegal occupiers and Taliban refugees.

While replacing them WITH illegal occupiers and Taliban refugees.

I knew it. I tossed about this aspect over a year ago.

There’s the data. Vindicated.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

That’s how you solve the liquidity crisis.

[blueunicorn6]

There must be bodies everywhere.

[logi_cal869]

Yep. That is - coincidentally - how they solve the looming crisis in CCP land as well.

And it dovetails nicely with Gate/WHO depopulation initiatives.

[Tell It Right]

The people who tell us over and over that the SS system will collapse without rampant immigration because there aren't enough young people to put money into the SS system, are now the same people who want us to be alarmed at the higher death rates of an aging population.

Call me a skeptic until I see the underlying data.

We expect more of everything each year, including deaths, because our population grows every year.

Also take into account that our population is aging, we have more people dying from old age, too. The youngest of the World War II generation is in their 90's. The Baby Boomers are in their 70's. The tweeners are in their 80's. The generations where it was common to have many siblings are old and the generations that have only one or two siblings are young.

This entire covid / vax scheme is part and parcel of our erstwhile rulers’ attempt at a Final Solution for us deplorables.

[stanne]

400,000 more in one year. Ok. It will continue like that during the time the baby boomers die. Just doh. Can we think? Or ?

76 years since 1945
