@josh @Slightly_Creepy @CoolHandJames @Grimwing Well here we go again I guess.

Attached below is the chart showing the total deaths per week from all causes in the United States. You’ll notice we go from pretty predictable cyclical behavior (slightly more people dying in the winter), to these crazy spikes that start around April 2020.

What could be causing that? Well that’s where the 2nd chart comes in, because it’s the same chart, but the deaths that were reported as COVID deaths are colored in. And you’ll notice that, once you subtract the COVID deaths from the total death toll, those crazy spikes mostly disappear, indicating that, overall, we did not have a problem with officials marking non-COVID deaths as being COVID.

I’m aware there were individual cases where shit was misclassified and those stories were widely circulated, but a few administrative fuckups does not a conspiracy make. Actually, if you look at the 2nd chart closely you’ll notice that there are spikes in “non-COVID” deaths that correlate with the COVID spikes, possibly suggesting that COVID deaths may have actually been higher, not lower, than what was reported.
