How do we have "excess" deaths from kung flu when we're experiencing less deaths overall than last year?Here's another one. Taken directly from the CDC website.
It shows deaths per week for the last several years, along with the 'expected' number and marks the "excess" data points over the expected number.
The important part of this graph is that it starts at 0, not some artificial number chosen to dramatize the covid effect.
Yes, covid is worse than the flu. But if you look back at the 2018 flu season, you'll note that it can get pretty nasty too, and we didn't do jack shit about it.
So we went from "business as usual" to "burn the economy and constitution to the ground" over a few % increase ?
