Insurance CEO says deaths up 40% among working age people, and it's not just COVID

The head of OneAmerica insurance said the death rate is up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels among working-age people.

“We are seeing, right now, the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business – not just at OneAmerica,” the company’s CEO Scott Davison said during an online news conference this week. “The data is consistent across every player in that business.”

OneAmerica is a $100 billion insurance company that has had its headquarters in Indianapolis since 1877. The company has approximately 2,400 employees and sells life insurance, including group life insurance to employers in the state.

Davison said the increase in deaths represents “huge, huge numbers,” and that’s it’s not elderly people who are dying, but “primarily working-age people 18 to 64” who are the employees of companies that have group life insurance plans through OneAmerica.

“And what we saw just in third quarter, we’re seeing it continue into fourth quarter, is that death rates are up 40% over what they were pre-pandemic,” he said.

“Just to give you an idea of how bad that is, a three-sigma or a one-in-200-year catastrophe would be 10% increase over pre-pandemic,” he said. “So 40% is just unheard of.”

Obviously either he knows (what we know) or he’s furiously getting his data science guys to validate it — or he’s an wokist and is getting his data science guys to obfuscate it.

The company that dares to scale its rate by the post-jab risk will win. The others that play dumb or stay dumb will get buried in claims and go under.

Unfortunately, complicating matters is of course that anyone who sticks their head up to admit that the jab is even a contributing factor to risk gets the full force of the current misadministration, MSM, banksters, Big Tech, and if they’re especially galling, personal expressions by BLM and Pantifa.

People in the insurance industry are not, by and large, daring folk.

Maybe it’s an excuse to raise rates.

There’s this, too ....decrease in average life expectancy big time in the US (8.5 times the average decrease in 16 comparable countries) as such numbers go.

Excerpt from:

Kennedy Jr., Robert F. . The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health (Children’s Health Defense) (pp. 41-42). Skyhorse. Kindle Edition.

Anthony Fauci seems to have not considered that his unprecedented quarantine of the healthy would kill far more people than COVID, obliterate the global economy, plunge millions into poverty and bankruptcy, and grievously wound constitutional democracy globally. We have no way of knowing how many people died from isolation, unemployment, deferred medical care, depression, mental illness, obesity, stress, overdoses, suicide, addiction, alcoholism, and the accidents that so often accompany despair. We cannot dismiss the accusations that his lockdowns proved more deadly than the contagion. A June 24, 2021 BMJ study22 showed that US life expectancy decreased by 1.9 years during the quarantine. Since COVID mortalities were mainly among the elderly, and the average age of death from COVID in the UK was 82.4, which was above the average lifespan,23 the virus could not by itself cause the astonishing decline. As we shall see, Hispanic and Black Americans often shoulder the heaviest burden of Dr. Fauci’s public health adventures. In this respect, his COVID-19 countermeasures proved no exception. Between 2018 and 2020, the average Hispanic American lost around 3.9 years in longevity, while the average lifespan of a Black American dropped by 3.25 years.24

This dramatic culling was unique to America. Between 2018 and 2020, the 1.9 year decrease in average life expectancy at birth in the US was roughly 8.5 times the average decrease in 16 comparable countries, all of which were measured in months, not years.

“I naïvely thought the pandemic would not make a big difference in the gap because my thinking was that it’s a global pandemic, so every country is going to take a hit,” said Steven Woolf, Director Emeritus of the Center on Society and Health at Virginia Commonwealth University. “What I didn’t anticipate was how badly the US would handle the pandemic. These are numbers we aren’t at all used to seeing in this research; 0.1 years is something that normally gets attention in the field, so 3.9 years and 3.25 years and even 1.4 years is just horrible,” Woolf continued. “We haven’t had a decrease of that magnitude since World War II.”26

Note: numbers are footnote numbers

It it very hard to believe that 40% of Americans have died and hard to bekieve period.

Are you stupid, inept or can't you read?

The head of OneAmerica insurance said the death rate is up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels among working-age people.

40% of their insurance policy holders are dead, not 40% of Americans.

>>I wonder how much of the increase is related to the legalization/decriminalization of drug use?
How much is fentanyl and opioids?
Murder? Democrat America is setting modern era records.
Suicide?<<

...and or heart attacks, strokes, neurological auto immune issues?

I suspect that like most LARGE Corporations, many have been bought or bullied into complying with the Globalist Reset, by Klauss Schwab and the World Economic Forum and the World Bank.

Globalist Suck. Really Suck. And are servants of the Great Evil.

Insurance companies over the past 20 years have done lots of insane stuff. I’m not sure how to judge them now. At one time it was a question of integrity of the local agent. That is totally gone with the advent of the great database in the sky.

These are from company group life. Those are the, “You are covered for X times your salary” policies. There are almost zero restrictions or data collected on those people when they are added.

The demographics on these folks would be interesting.

The sociological changes over the past few years would be interesting to overlay. People are disconnected, depressed, and their entire routine has changed. Working people are not active any more. Working from home means personal care has changed. Some people are actually more active (daily ‘walkers’ have increased in my town, for example.).

18-64 is a huge range. I would love to see the CODs for 18-35, and 35-64. Behaviors are significantly different for those groups.

It will be years before the actuaries are done with this information. But you know that somewhere in the basement of Mass Mutual’s home office there are some nerds going, “holy sh!t!”.

Yep and this is just the start. The die off among the vaccinated is expected to stretch out 2-5 years. Maybe more.

Americans have been asleep for the past 30 years and have no intention of wakening up!!

Maybe it's you that has been the one asleep for the last 30 years and not the rest of your fellow Americans.

Speak of thee, not of me.

1. The fab of mental health. Everyone is overwhelmed\anxious\frightened\exhausted at hyperbolic levels.
2. Depression over panic narratives of Covid/Global Climate/Racism/Nazis

Thank gawd I'm not insured through OneAmerica! That would greatly increase my chances of dying, right?

Well, we know murder is up, particularly black-on-black murder. We also know traffic fatalities are way up as well, and we know that drug overdoses and suicide are greatly as well.

What else is there?

Insurance companies treat individual life insurance claims differently than they do group insurance claims. Group life insurance is typically for a very low amount compared to individual policies, so the verification process isn’t very extensive. Many of these companies don’t even check the death certificates for group claims; they just verify that the SS# has been deactivated, then pay the claim.

Murder? Democrat America is setting modern era records.

I really doubt that many of the approx. 900 people murdered in Chicago last year were employees of companies insured through OneAmerica.

It’s a 40% increase in claims.

They might have 10 deaths out of 100,000 insured. The next year they have 14 deaths.

This is an interesting demographic story. But 40% of any population dying is only happening in NY nursing homes.

There might be a correlation like with the military troops returning from the middle east. Lots of vehicular accident deaths. We lost several in very high speed motor cycle accidents.

The military troops are not employed by companies with group insurance through OneAmerica, I dare say. The statistics cited here refer only to such people employed by companies with group insurance through OneAmerica.

Well, 40% increase in death rate of any group is huge.

It did not say that 40% of their policy holders died. It said the death “rate” compared to normal rate increased by 40%.

I have no idea what the annual US death rate (as a percentage of population) is.

Aren't the claims made on behalf of the dead policy holders?

Didn't think that one through, did you.
