The overall population mortality shows the effect of Covid - that is, the raw total of recorded deaths in civil, not medical records.

The CDC has compiled these. Unfortunately in the US this lags medical reporting by up to a month.

This is of weekly totals of recorded death certificates. Scroll down to the chart.

Most European countries do the same. As an example, Spain, which has very efficient civil records, does it daily, lagged about 1.5 weeks -

Their chart speaks for itself.

As for the cause of death - it is possible that panic itself caused the increase in mortality, but that is a stretch. The timing seems very unlikely to explain it as a general lack of medical care. There would have been no European ‘summer holiday’ from Covid if that was the case.

My opinion, as I note with these charts and etc., is not based on sensational reporting but on rarely noted public records, never mentioned in the MSM. I do my own research. I’m the guy who looks up footnotes.

It is entirely possible (extremely likely, to me) that medical reporting is full of false information, as well as there being a genuine and significant increase in deaths due to Covid, AND that the disease is nowhere near deadly enough to justify the extreme, panicked response, which is a judgment call.

So you believe that a virus that causes no or easily ignored symptoms in approximately 90% of people causes more deaths than the entire population afraid to get medical care for the serious health threats of heart disease, cancer, strokes and other life threatening illnesses? The entire population has been denied the opportunity to exercise at health clubs and around here to even walk around a mall. Nearly the entire population has been denied the ability to choose restaurants which serve healthy meals instead of fast food crap. My parents were going to the YMCA just about every night. They were eating healthy food and they were going to the doctor when they had problems. They are very sociable people but they have been denied contact with people even at their church. They appear to have aged 10 years in the past year.

Regardless of what you believe about yourself... you have been misled and are a silly, gullible person.
