#Sweden - #Mortality deaths per months 1980-2020

"I think it's like a severe flu season"
Professor Johan Giesecke

(update, putting all charts into one single pinned thread )

#France - deaths per months 1980-2020

In January 2017 more people died than in April 2020. But we saw no TGVs with ICU patients, and had no #crisesainitaire.

#Germany - deaths per months 1990-2020

In 2017/18, Germany was faced with the deadliest flu season of the last 30 years. Nobody took notice. We missed it. @Markus_Soeder did not protect us. And we had plenty of toilet paper.

#Belgium - deaths per month 1980-2020

Belgium has the highest per-capita C19 death toll in Europe. In terms of overall mortality, it is similar to 1989.

Sweden - deaths per week

The disasters, that nobody was interested in.

In Germany, data is clear - lockdown was after the turning point, in a decling epidemic. A near-perfect decay.

Oresund is a bi-national metropolitan Region - in south Sweden and east Denmark. It is a perfect natural experiment.

#Switzerland - #Mortality Deaths per month 1980-2020

COVID19 in Switzerland is in the range of a rather mild flu season. But what happend in winter 89/90? Nobody took notice, we haven't even got a name for the total disaster.

I took all my charts about overall mortality on a story in medium, so it can be shared outside twitter for everybody with a webbrowser.
