"Professor David Coleman, Emeritus Professor of Demography at Oxford University, told the Mirror that no one knew for certain what had caused so many deaths throughout last year."

Well, he can speak for himself, I do know, as many others do: COVID.
"He pointed out that, post Covid, the UK’s population had been changed through the deaths of a significant proportion of elderly due to the virus."

I'm sorry, what? Post what? Are you taking the piss?

And the number of people over 65+ in the UK actually increased! United Kingdom: Age distrib...
"He explained: “Once those poor people have been packed off, the remaining population should be healthier, there should be a period afterwards where deaths are lower than usual but that hasn’t happened.”"

I translate that for you:
"We were quite happy to see the 'old and frail' culled from the herd, we can't say the word eugenics out loud but they were a burden and expendable. But now we find it bizarre that so many more people than we geniuses expected are being packed off."
And he went on:
"But he highlighted two key reasons that could contribute towards spiking excess deaths, the fact Britain’s getting older, and gaining a larger average body-mass index."

Older? Didn't "the deaths of a significant proportion of elderly" change that? I guess not.
Older and fatter. I see. Must have been quite a weight gain in a couple of years and the circulatory/heart disease must have increased exponentionally. If only we knew of a virus doing the rounds that did exactly that... 🤔
'One of the noted causes behind a number of the excess deaths were ischaemic heart diseases - which would track with the professor’s warnings of a fatter population."

But not COVID, couldn't possibly be COVID...
"If you look at the detail and the reasons on death certificates, it’s a bit unsatisfactory as symptoms, signs and ill-defined is one of the biggest components of these excess deaths and that’s something associated with old age really,”

They are just dropping dead for no reason.
On the age structure of the UK:
“These [estimates of population size in each age group] do not currently take into account major effects, such as the Covid pandemic, that would have affected the population size and pattern of ages.”

I really wish he would make up is mind...
"Which still leaves tens of thousands of dead Brits, with no clear explanation as to quite how they died."

No shit, Sherlock.

COVID explains all that without the need to so much gaslighting, you geniuses.

Around the world, governments are working to erase data showing there's a deadly pandemic going on. First they stopped testing, and the number of cases 'declined'. Without dignoses, people dying with or after COVID also 'decreased'.

Now they are going after Excess Deaths. 👇
The most straightforward way of counting excess deaths is simply by comparing the number of a year with the average of the 5 previous years. Changes in the size and structure of a population change slowly year on year and have minimal effect on this comparison.
Due to the pandemic, this comparison has so far been made with the last 5 years before the pandemic, so 2015-2019.
But this is becoming a problem because we are still witnessing substantial excess mortality in 2023 and this undermines the whole 'the pandemic is over' brainwash.

Just a reminder that if COVID-19 was 'just like the flu' and the people dying were 'gonna die anyway' there wouldn't be a WORLDWIDE, unprecedented in modern times, DROP in LIFE EXPECTANCY. Life Expectancy from 1980 t...
Notice that Africa, the Continent with the youngest population, was not spared the drop in life expectancy. It is not only the 'old and frail' that are dying.
Also, China opened up only in late 2022, so the drop in Asia is despite China having no drop in life expectancy due to its responsible but much maligned in the West 'dynamic zero covid' policy. Compare it to India where Delta killed millions of people. Look at that 2021 drop. 😱 Image

If you look at the EuroMOMO Excess mortality for all ages since the start of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in 2020 in Europe, you can't really say that things improved. The first 3 years of the pandemic show very similar levels of excess death at the end of the year.

If 2023 seems to be looking better, remember that delayed reporting will increase those last few weeks apparent drop in numbers.

Here is a look at weekly mortality along the years. Looks like an improvement? Not to me, the weekly peaks since 2020 go from 90 to 110 thousand. 2022, the year of peak vaccination, looks a bit better, with deaths more spread in time. But 2022/23 winter is back to terrible.
