A few points:
First, that chart only goes back to 2019. You need to look at more than 1 year pre-covid to identify any kind of trend, shift, drift, or outlier, never mind start looking for causes.
I say this as a retired med lab tech who was trained & is experienced in viewing daily qc & calibration charts of chemistry analyzers in order …
First, that chart only goes back to 2019. You need to look at more than 1 year pre-covid to identify any kind of trend, shift, drift, or outlier, never mind start looking for causes.
I say this as a retired med lab tech who was trained & is experienced in viewing daily qc & calibration charts of chemistry analyzers in order to correct problems before they provide bad info that injures or kills someone.
Also, the article states that until 2020, the death rate had been declining. That tells me to things:
* Prior to 2019, the death rate had been higher. How much higher is an unknown.
.* Since death rates normally increase as we age, the prior downward trend that the article mentions suggests an improving living standard. Something was changing to cause it to drop instead of rise.
Finally, looking at rate of death #s in your article, the rate of death jumped from 164 to 190 per 100,000, ie 16%.
In the US, Walensky admitted that 75% of covid deaths were elderly with 4 serious co-morbidities. How many with 3 serious co-morbidities? 2?
So the previous decreasing death rate was not normal. The increased death rate was possibly abnormally high, but occurred within the 2 years of a pandemic virus designed specifically to to kill the patients in question.
I'm not saying that there aren't problems in Russia hospitals. I am saying we've seen the same horrific stories from nursing homes & hospitals here in the wealthy US, and I'll add *even before the pandemic.*
In the wealthy US, they are consistently due to understaffed, underpaid, undertrained staff. Under paying also leads to lower quality applicants for the jobs. That shoes our priorities.
What we do know for a documented fact in the US is that Fauxi *knew* the origin & design of the virus, he *knew* that early treatment with iver & hcl was effective, he *knew* that vents & remdesivir are contraindicated & kill, and he consciously & knowingly has lied *to the world* about all of the above. That makes him a mass murderer.
We don't know the same about Russia, which at this point has been under various forms of attack by the US & west since the USSR was formed & since it dissolved.
Thank you Mary for that very interesting comment. What you say for the US fits with the French situation, furthermore when qualified and diligent independant researchers checked the excess mortality rate for 2020, they discovered that the rather mild excess was due to a "harvesting" effect. Most of the "few" victims of covid 19 have been over 80 and with comorbidities. The scandal with the killing of the elders in nursing home is due to the use of Rivotril but the murderous pattern is the same as in England, the US and likely many other countries. The Institut Pasteur is also very deeply involved with Fauci and co.
