What is your take on these stats? CDC is not very good as their data varies across various reports. I see a 6% excess death rate for the year. About 70k excess deaths including what was a bad flu season that all of a sudden disappeared. I understand it may be difficult determine cause when one or more of flu, pneumonia, and covid are present. They credit covid with 105k deaths so they are essentially saying all other forms of deaths are 3-4% OR 35k below normal for the year. 2019 was a great year and we say 20k-30k fewer deaths for the year. If these covid numbers are correct, they are essentially saying all other forms of death were on pace to be 70k less than expected for the year. I don't believe this is true. The 70k of excess deaths looks like a more realistic covid number with 35k of bullshit added on. Now think how low this number could have been if 3 or 4 states had not decided to have corona parties in their nursing homes.
