The excess death data provides the clearest picture of the impact of the...


pandemic. Looking at "cause" of death based on death certificates brings in an enormous amount of subjectivity as there are a lot of people that would have died of something that died from COVID. Further, there are a lot of people that may have died from COVID-related issues that contributed to their death, but were not the direct cause.

The CDC reports 936,000 excess deaths since 2/2020. That is a huge number.
