Managing the death rate or not, the CDC compiles all death statistics that show a substantial increase thus far this year (trend over proceeding years). Lacking any other active pandemic, natural disaster, apolycypse it's believed the spike is covid related. Give it enough time and the health statisticians will use their skills to zero in on the number of people dead because of the pandemic. That will take some time though and some data is not being reported and some is being scrutinized for accuracy. If Covid is not killing all these people there seems there should be another identifiable cause. Some reports show workplace and traffic accident deaths are down and that those negative numbers would be further exacerbate the unidentified higher numbers. One needs to ask: as covid preys on people that have underlying health issues, sans covid, would those dead be alive today?
