According to all-cause mortality statistics,1 the number of Americans who have died between January 2021 and August 2021 is 16% higher than 2018, the pre-COVID year with the highest all-cause mortality, and 18% higher than the average death rate between 2015 and 2019. Adjusted for population growth of about 0.6% annually, the mortality rate in 2021 is 16% above the average and 14% above the 2018 rate.
The obvious question is, why did more people die in 2021 (January through August) despite the rollout of COVID shots in December 2020? Did COVID-19 raise the death toll despite mass vaccination, or are people dying at increased rates because of the COVID jabs?
Mortality rate of 2020 is conspicuously missing.
If it was the same or lower than 2021, that would be a huge point in his favor. So why would he not mention it? Was it significantly higher than 2021?
Difficult to take the article seriously, or even bother reading the rest, when it starts with such a glaring omission.
