Covid-19 was the third leading cause of death in the United States last year, after heart disease and cancer, according to provisional data released on Wednesday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The death rate from 2019 to 2020 increased by 15.9%, going up from 715.2 to 828.7 deaths per 100,000 people, according to the report.
The early data showed that the top 10 leading causes of death in 2020 were:
Heart disease
Cancer
Covid-19
Unintentional injury
Stroke
Chronic lower respiratory disease
Alzheimer's disease
Diabetes
Influenza and pneumonia
Kidney disease

It’s actually the first leading cause. Everyone that died last year died of Rona.
ONLY IF YOU INCLUDE CO-MORBIDITY
Covid-19 was third leading cause of death last year, CDC confirms in early data
BANG.
And in other news, Epstein killed himself and George Floyd was murdered. And Nick Sandmann mocked an elderly indian.
And masks work.
The real deal: click for MI on this Atrocity and war crime:
Just another example.
Deaths classified as Covid-19 was third leading cause of death last year, CDC confirms in early data
The CDC paid hospitals to ensure Covid was the third highest cause of death in 2020.
“was reported as the underlying cause or a contributing cause” -— kind of open-ended statement there.
Was the media screaming about the COVID death rate back in 2019? Did we even KNOW about COVID back in 2019?
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
the third leading cause of death are doctors’,
and hospitals’ ERRORS (and delays),
and that does not include iatrogenic disease
like the FauXi Atrocity.
If this is true, then there's a lot of material recently posted that is complete garbage.
And for each of the COD’s listed what were they reduced by?
Who is believable these days?
Johns Hopkins: COVID Has Had No Effect On US Death Rate
by Michael Suede • November 26, 2020
“Therefore, according to Briand, not only has COVID-19 had no effect on the percentage of deaths of older people, but it has also not increased the total number of deaths.”
“All of this points to no evidence that COVID-19 created any excess deaths. Total death numbers are not above normal death numbers. We found no evidence to the contrary,” Briand concluded.
Johns Hopkins News-Letter reports:
COURTESY OF GENEVIEVE BRIAND After retrieving data on the CDC website, Briand compiled a graph representing percentages of total deaths per age category from early February to early September.
According to new data, the U.S. currently ranks first in total COVID-19 cases, new cases per day and deaths. Genevieve Briand, assistant program director of the Applied Economics master’s degree program at Hopkins, critically analyzed the effect of COVID-19 on U.S. deaths using data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in her webinar titled “COVID-19 Deaths: A Look at U.S. Data.”
From mid-March to mid-September, U.S. total deaths have reached 1.7 million, of which 200,000, or 12% of total deaths, are COVID-19-related. Instead of looking directly at COVID-19 deaths, Briand focused on total deaths per age group and per cause of death in the U.S. and used this information to shed light on the effects of COVID-19.
She explained that the significance of COVID-19 on U.S. deaths can be fully understood only through comparison to the number of total deaths in the United States.
After retrieving data on the CDC website, Briand compiled a graph representing percentages of total deaths per age category from early February to early September, which includes the period from before COVID-19 was detected in the U.S. to after infection rates soared.
Surprisingly, the deaths of older people stayed the same before and after COVID-19. Since COVID-19 mainly affects the elderly, experts expected an increase in the percentage of deaths in older age groups. However, this increase is not seen from the CDC data. In fact, the percentages of deaths among all age groups remain relatively the same.
“The reason we have a higher number of reported COVID-19 deaths among older individuals than younger individuals is simply because every day in the U.S. older individuals die in higher numbers than younger individuals,” Briand said.
Yeah, right.....
