I am in the 65+,  and that is a very high death rate for my group. I have had it 3x, and was largely unaffected by it. Once before vaccination; twice with vaccination.

I was thinking this was pretty much over for deaths but when I view your weekly report, with deaths waning; they are not stopping.

In my opinion a lot of the current deaths are not dying from covid but instead dying while having covid
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

COVID can be akin to pneumonia/flu for the elderly.  It's enough to tip them over the edge if they are frail.  They'd survive longer if they didn't get it.

This applies to any respiratory illness more than other types, they prey on the elderly.

I'm guessing you are not obese, don't have COPD, are not diabetic, etc.

yes, makes me wonder how many are dying of pneumonia/flu?
maybe similar numbers, maybe more

The excess deaths when COVID was raging were notable relative to the norm.  The normal death rates in the US are pretty predictable in the past.

I'm not suggesting elderly aren't dying of COVID
just that the numbers are low enough now that there maybe fewer dying from COVID than pneumonia/flu

Now, probably, or close, it's not flu season now.  My guess is a lot of COVID deaths were caused by COVID first and than pneumonia setting in.  And a lot of the compromised elderly have been unfortunately killed off before their time, as it were.

I remember reading a report out of the EU that said the average person who died with Covid had 3.8 co-morbidities. That's a big number.

Covid just pushed them out a little earlier, I guess, as stated above.

That's been your opinion for going on three years now.

might also be some cases of dying with covid not dying because of covid
Or, at least well over a year.
