However, there are multiple things going on. I'm also pointing out other sources of extra deaths that are not "natural" -- drug ODs, homicides, suicides, motor vehicle accidents, falls -- and these are not going great, either.
But there are all sorts of things going on, and some are U.S.-specific, and some are not.
MEEP (My actuarial Guru) --- I have been reading so much about "excess deaths" by a variety of Covid contrarians and I do not know if this is really 'something' or not. I need my Guru's help to better understand the basis for this analysis. You did have the Jan 3, 2022 article but I did not find any more current articles from you (sorry if I missed them). If you have been reading these articles can you maybe give a "future" tutorial about the current Hub-Bub? Thanks
Bill Rice Jr, another Substack writer, has an article today. Heavy on opinion without the stats or sources cited as you do.
Sorry, I don't know who that is (but then, I don't know most of the billions on this planet)
Look, there is definitely excess mortality and it's ongoing, and it's part of my involvement with this group:

What specifically about excess mortality?
Because I definitely have a lot about increases of death rates from all sorts of non-COVID causes (and from COVID causes)
In particular, go to this post:
https://marypatcampbell.substack.com/p/stump-2023-mortality-trends-and-resources
see that set of videos that says "2020-2022 U.S. mortality videos and posts"
pick the ones you're interested in.
The natural causes of death that really went up (other than COVID):
- heart disease
- stroke
- diabetes
- liver disease
- kidney disease
Cancer is kind of a mixed bag
I'm starting to dig through different types of cancer, but I think what I'm seeing is missed screening/treatment
