A while ago, I gave up looking at COVID stats because there was so much misinformation out there. However, now that the CDC has released data on total deaths and deaths by category, and there are some interesting things to watch. Unfortunately, due to reporting delays, data is only up to date until July 2021. This is first data.
Figure 1. Deaths by age, both with COVID as the underlying cause on the death certificate and those with COVID plus other causes.
I see many people saying that school children should be vaccinated… but only 155 children under the age of 15 died, and most of them had serious co-morbidities.
Next, here’s the total number of all-cause deaths since 2019.
Figure 2. US deaths, from all causes, January 2019 through July 2021
As you can see, there are clearly “excess” deaths in 2020 and 2021. Figure 3 shows how “excess” deaths are compared to 2019.
Figure 3. Percent change in “all-cause” deaths in the United States, 2020-2022 compared with 2019.
What is concerning is the fact that over-65s deaths have essentially returned to pre-pandemic levels…
Next, here are the total number of excess deaths and deaths from COVID.
Figure 4. Surplus deaths and COVID deaths, January 2020 to July 2021
I’m assuming that excess deaths not caused by COVID are due to lockdowns — suicides and deferred medical procedures.
A final oddity is the “natural” deaths. Note that “Natural” is not cause about death, such as COVID, heart attack, or cancer. Instead, it is a method of death. Possible acts of death are Natural, Murder, Accident, Pending Investigation and Suicide. Figure 5 shows the changes in the “Natural” way of dying compared to 2019.

Most curious. Mortality “naturally” increased in those aged 15 to 45 years or so, but flattened or even decreased in older people. I’m afraid I have no explanation for that. I suspect that it is due to the vaccine, as those deaths seem to be mostly due to things like myocarditis and pericarditis that are related to the heart, and this is the percentage change in disease heart.
Figure 6. Percent change in heart disease deaths in the United States, 2020-2022 compared with 2019.
Note that recently, heart disease has generally decreased in the 15-45 age group with “natural” mortality rates increasing…
As always, more questions than answers…
I extend my best regards to all,

My custom requirements: When you comment PLEASE quote the exact words you’re discussing, so we can all be clear on who and what you’re talking about.
Data: These numbers are available from the CDC, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention here. Do I trust them? Not particularly, the CDC is hardly the hallmark of all of this… but they are the best I could find.
Final note: I am neither for nor against. However, I am completely and completely opposed to all duties and passports.
The logic of the people promoting the duties and passports runs like this:
The protected need protection from the unprotected, so we need to put pressure and force the unprotected to receive protection not protect the protected…
Having said that… that makes no sense to me.
I say people need to balance their personal risk from COVID (real) with their risk from so-called “vaccines” (also real). Me, I live with my beautiful ex-fiancée, my daughter, my son-in-law, my 2-1/2 year old niece and my 2-1/2 month old grandson. At 74, I’m in middle age, the risk is very high. I had two seizures and a heart attack. My gorgeous ex-fiancé is a Family Nurse who works with patients, some of whom likely have or have had COVID.
So it was an easy choice, that nice lady and I were both vaccinated and boosted… but that’s us. You need to balance and choose for yourself.
