There were over a half-million more US deaths in 2020 than there were in 2019, according to the official mortality data—by far the largest yearly increase in deaths since at least 1968. 50,000 of those excess deaths happened over 8 weeks in 25 counties in the New York City metropolitan area, all of which experienced more than a 100% increase in deaths in April 2020—some more than 550%. How many hypotheses about the cause of excess deaths in 2020 are consistent with the NYC data? Is the data consistent with the idea that toxic treatment protocols were primarily responsible for excess deaths? Is it possible 1.5 million excess deaths in 2020-2023 were fabricated in the official records?
Read MoreMaybe I’ll be accused of exaggeration or self-aggrandizement, but The Illustrated US Mortality Guide: An objective and eye-opening overview of deaths in the United States from 1968—2023: Just the numbers, is my baby, so I think I’m entitled to be a little delusional about it, especially so soon after its birth. This book baby has been in the making for more than a year, and finally, after seemingly endless additions, subtractions, modifications, and technical difficulties, it is up on Amazon, ready to be adored by all—who will hopefully be smitten enough to buy a copy, in Kindle or paperback—or even both, if they are particularly smitten. This unique book objectively presents the official US mortality data, totally free of opinions or conclusions, and makes it accessible for everyone.
Read MoreThis post is the third in a series in which I look at the characteristics of the death waves that crashed over the US in 2020 and 2021. These death waves impacted different states at different times, and even different counties within each state—something that is important to keep in mind when considering the testimonies of medical and funeral workers. In this post I focus on the causes of death that increased the most during the 6 death peaks, and find a wide range of causes affecting lots of different body parts, with an especially large number of respiratory problems.
Read MoreIn my last post, I identified the months and states where the highest increases in deaths occurred in the United States in 2020 and 2021—the peaks of the death waves. We saw that overall, 90% of excess deaths occurred in 3 places: among inpatients in medical facilities (55%); at home (23%); and in nursing homes and long term care facilities (12%). In this post, I look at excess deaths by age group during the death peaks, and as usual, find some strange and surprising things. I also provide an update on the coverup of excess US deaths, with a spurious claim by Dr. Jessica Hockett that mortality data was fabricated, and from Dr. Pierre Kory , a “debate” about a false dichotomy that excludes the possibility of democide.
Read MoreThere were a series of strange “death waves” in the United States in 2020-2023—especially in 2020 (“the year of the virus”), and 2021 (“the year of the vaccine”). However, the situation was very different in different states, at different times in 2020 and 2021—deaths were extraordinarily high in some times and places, while at other times and places, deaths were normal. In this paper, I identify the peak months and states where excess deaths occurred in the US, and look at the places people died in those months and states—in hospitals, at home, and elsewhere. I hope you find the results as intriguing and thought-provoking as I did.
Read MoreLately I’ve been writing about several unusual surges in US deaths that occurred from 2020 to 2022. Even though I haven’t looked at all the surges individually yet, I decided to jump straight to this discussion of all the surges collectively, after the high strangeness of the situation hit me. Just how strange were the 2020-2022 “death waves”? Read on.
