If we look at the age groups - it's mostly young!

Keep in mind that this data is still preliminary and corrected by CDC and by myself to account for delays in registration.

If holds true, then why are people dying in the younger age groups? Vaccine? Lockdowns?

@AlexBerenson

The two oldest Age groups are normal, but even the 65-74 age group is back to significant excess, despite having access to the vaccine for a while... Lockdowns?
