COVID: "Excess Deaths"

We're doing well, better and better every day.

Remember when the Quasi's had a herd immunity date on their COVID webpage? Ho-ho-ho, they don't have that anymore. They have something that I have not seen before, however: an "excess deaths" page with a graph.

Since March 2020, about 574,000 more Americans have died than would have in a normal year, a sign of the broad devastation wrought by the coronavirus pandemic.  


That's a lotta, lotta excess deaths but not as many as the Quasi's total death toll from COVID,  1,038,392. So does that mean that 464,000 would have been a "normal" level of deaths? I think so. Does it mean that those 464,000 would have (statistically speaking) died anyway? That would seem to follow.

Interesting, no? Hey, the redacted affidavit hasn't leaked, okay? It's a slow day.
