You also have to take into account the rise in suicide, and those who died from not receiving regular care because of Covid measures. I know of several people who had to put off cancer treatment for months, which can become life or death. Not to mention all the “elective” surgeries that were postponed making some people’s minor problems , serious problems with the ongoing delays.
Also my mother almost died of corona virus, because she got a kidney infection with it and no doctor would run any tests on her or give her any medications or even allow her in the doctors office. She became septic with her kidney infection and we had to rush her to the one of the only 4 doctors in Texas who will see a Covid positive person and treat them as an actual human patient. I wonder how many others did not get so lucky
Someone who has been skipping some dialysis to avoid catching Covid-19, then catches it anyways and dies will be considered Covid related, even though it was the lack of dialysis that did 90% of the killing.
Because i don’t have the actual numbers off hand I used the avg per day of previous years to find a nice middle ground between all the months.
While I don’t doubt at all that hospitals will fuck around to get paid.
I doubt they’re making up dead bodies that don’t exist in any significant numbers
The numbers I used were for total dead from all causes, not covid or covid related, but all deaths.
The resulting number is the # of additional people who died from the virus, the virus making a existing problem worse, or any of its butterfly effects (like say alcoholism from job loss due to the lockdown)
The whole point is the CDC’s 169K probably isn’t completely crazy.
If anything the numbers the cdc provide confirm what people think
The virus alone in healthy people is no big deal, but if you have a preexisting illness or condition, it could fuck you up bad.
So I did the math, per CDC numbers
2017 avg dead per day: 7,708
Multiplied for 7 months: 1.64M
2020 most recent 7 months: 1.82M
That means 180,000 more people have died in 2020 during this 7 month span than would have in 2017.
The CDC states that it’s 169K covid related deaths.
As long as they aren’t just making up dead bodies that don’t exist, it’s probably not bullshit

You’re not wrong by any means
Increases in alcoholism, suicide and drug abuse I’d imagine, and a decrease in say car wrecks
The numbers I gave are simply the net total of everything
Someone who has been skipping some dialysis to avoid catching Covid-19, then catches it anyways and dies will be considered Covid related, even though it was the lack of dialysis that did 90% of the killing.
So many things wrong with this.
You have to look at month over month, as different times of year have different death numbers.
There has been a year over year increase in number of deaths every single year, so naturally since 2017 there have been increases each year of deaths.
Considering the number of fake wuhan flu deaths reported, there is no rational for your comment, so I will assume you are a troll.
