Bear with me for a sec...take Italy for example. Rounding for simplicity. They have ~60,000,000 people. Death rate is ~1 in 100 in any given year: https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/ITA/italy/death-rate

That means, prior to COVID-19, you would expect 600,000 or 1/100 Italians to die of all causes. That's an average of 50,000 per month, or 1,643 per day, from all causes.

Have any of you autists been able to ascertain total deaths per day in Italy, from all causes, recently? Given this deadly plague, I would expect that total deaths per day would rise from 1,643 to that figure plus 700, 800, 600, or whatever, meaning total deaths per day would be well over 2,000/day, and closer to 2,500.

Inquiring minds want to know. Now do the States of NY, WA, and CA in the USA.

Yep. That's my point. They are defining the definition of "facts."

Easy to do, when you have a complicit audience.

You're asking the same questions folks did following hurricane maria where anyone who died counted as a hurricane death. Italy admitted their death toll is inflated

That's the big secret to all these big health scares. The data isn't fully compiled for years, but in general, these viral outbreaks don't really increase total death toll because they tend to kill people that were likely to die of something within a few years due to underlying health problems.

Across the developed world, the number one cause of death by mile is old age, but that's just not a scary enough statistic to get people glued to the television. So they say we have a heart disease epidemic, a cancer epidemic, a diabetes epidemic, killer flu, and novel viruses. Then they blame our diet, our lifestyle, our culture, or our technology all the while carefully avoiding the fact that the vast majority of people dying from all of these "epidemics" are over the age of 85.

Sorry.

There is no such data.

Honestly.
