An observation. Isn’t it amazing, actually slightly unreal. It is as if the past two years never happened. Oh wait, perhaps I am wrong. Despite everyone’s exuberance this jubilee weekend, I cannot help but sense a soupçon of hesitation in the general public. It is as if they know the past two years did happen and there is more to follow. Perhaps legacy media is losing its supporters and alt media is breaking down doors, closed to them in the past, because it is difficult to hide mortality data.

I have been saying this for over a year now. When the bodies are piled up high enough and the masses are forced to break their cognitive dissonance or become a statistic themselves, MSM becomes irrelevant. That day is soon.

I so hope you are right about this Joel. I tweeted a summary of the 4800 Scottish Excess deaths last summer, and 1200 this spring (thanks to @scojw's graph) a couple of days ago to our Chief Medical Officer (who was congratulation NHS staff for the great job they had done), and tagged most of the key journalists in Scotland: https://twitter.com/lapogus1/status/1532284132977528832 Crickets.

When mortality signals are strong enough for "health experts" to spot a trend.

Curious how uncurious the world is about this data. I wonder how long it will take for the media to start picking up on it?

Every day, more and more people wake up and tune into alt media. MSM will eventually be consigned to the same heap of steaming, unwanted shite as the rest of big tech, pharma and govt.

Not a single person I know has changed their mind on this -- in fact what I am seeing is them blaming just about everything from repeat illnesses to vax injuries on long covid - motivating them to get boosters...

The CCM (corporate controlled media) remains firmly in control of the narrative.

They have the best PR and Ad people on the planet

I am seeing people who got all 4 doses in the UK now saying they have any more, and more people noticing lots of strange illnesses and deaths in their own circles.

I wish this awakening would happen in Canada, because it definitely is not where I am in Manitoba. I have been praying fervently for God to reveal the truth, which is happening furiously on alt media, but everyone I know will not listen and continues to be brainwashed and in denial.

We can only hope!

Sadly, most people hated mathematics and stats at high school. It's primarily the engineers and physicists of the world that love this stuff. The 'owners' rely upon this simple fact to hide the truth from the masses, including most Doctors, who preferred bio and chem. This interview is worth a look. https://rumble.com/v11b31c-the-denis-rancourt-report.html

One of the clearest illustrations I’ve seen over the last 2 years, thanks for your work Joel

Your cumulative excess deaths plot is very informative. One interesting feature I had to think about for a minute is how the curve must eventually return to baseline, even to zero. Like the motto on the Zero Hedge site: "On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone drops to zero."

Thank you for your work. I find this all so very depressing. Where I live on the Continent they are already ‘threatening’ a new vaxx campaign - with all emphasis on those of us who haven’t already succumbed! Will people have finally had enough or are they really going to roll up their sleeves again once their freedoms are jeopardised. I’m am really angry about it all but anger, depression, nothing seems to help and I still cannot seem get through to my nearest and dearest who have been taken in by it all!

Enough people will work out that curtailed freedom is a better option than death. Then we need them to rebel against curtailed freedoms!

It continues to amaze me that people still believe all the bullshit peddled by governments about COVID when the data is out there clearly debunking their lies

Danke dir! Thank you for the summary. I recall, some famous (infamous to the lefty-loons, orange hair bad) guy said in 2020..."The cure is worse than the disease."

Great chart and analysis. Will pass on.

Expand full comment

All these recent charts are great Joel. How much more obvious could it get?

I'm actually leaning towards this being a coincidence, if I had to guess, but I do wonder.... Do you think they started the vaccination in January so that there could not be a clear signal in the excess deaths associated with them?

Imagine they took a couple more months of of testing (you know, because they care about our health so much) and started them in March instead, right after the seasonal peak, and the deaths started shooting up. They could not explain this. Starting in January means any immediate deaths from the vaccine get confounded with the seasonal January peak. I wonder if "they" had this conversation?

We already have this with the summer spikes in many countries, like England and Canada. There is no hiding it.

I have no doubt that this happened. Do you remember that the injection campaign was brought forward and there was a huge “rush” to inject people?

At the time I told any one who would listen my theory of why it was happening.

Also I was working in a hospital and reality did not tie up with the MSM hysteria.

“They” would already have the initial trial data ( that was to be hidden for 75 years) so knew the injections:

a) didn’t work to stop transmission, serious infection or death

b) had serious adverse effects including death

“They” would also have known that the longer the gap between getting the trial data and starting injections the higher the chance of such data leaking out and then the greater the resistance to injections.

They also knew covid had come from a lab, but released, perhaps by accident, some time before 2018 (studies show this) and it is a potential explanation for the “bad flu” that happened 2018/19.

Great efforts were made to hide lab leak theories ( lots of information available on this too and more emails coming out of the clandestine “ass covering” that went on in Feb 2020).

The timing of the injections was such that covid cases were dropping and deaths would be able to be blamed on covid illnesses.

The deaths chart for the UK is not a typical peaks and troughs chart. It wobbles around as more injections were rolled and and more people caught covid as a result or sadly died due to injections.

So yes I think it was orchestrated in the way you think it was.

Why ?

Self preservation by those in positions of power and authority, bribery, fear of loss of income and status, threats, coercion.

and

It was another 2008 moment which “saved” the western financial ponzi scheme for another couple of years and it was a route to push through digital ID.

Try and encourage people to watch alternative news and keep pointing out little facts so others catch up before the next wave. At least this time there will be more people alert at the start.

Stock up on vitamins and get out in sunshine.

"I have no doubt that this happened. Do you remember that the injection campaign was brought forward and there was a huge “rush” to inject people?"

I guess so yes, I do recall the mad rush. And now I think - what a "coincidence" that those abominable text messages sent to everyone in the UK to "get boosted now" were sent over Christmas 2021, once again right before the January seasonal peak.

The global mad rush & the fact that no one on the planet could actually guarantee “safe & effective” w/ such a “warp speed” product w/out all the usual, years long safety protocols, were just more indications for me that every bit of it was cow shit & that I would never take it

Yes, I agree, they were desperate to start jabbing in the winter 2020-21, and only just got the jabs out in time - so they could disguise the subsequent mortality as 'covid'.

I’ll borrow from another Substack, “I’m not dumb I just don’t understand”! Lol

Your work is, as always impressive, but the sophistication and detail will make a blue-pilled vaxxer’s eyes glaze over. These data sets and graphs like those in your governors’ letters are fantastic as page 2 on.

Why? Excess mortality requires a subjective assumption, or at least a calculation from an estimated baseline. Same as years lost. Each new data point becomes farther removed from what you are really trying to communicate; total deaths.

To have any chance for all of this great work to red-pill anyone is first grab their attention without needing to offer a single word of explanation.

Page 1; a bar chart by year, 5 years say, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 YTD total deaths as expressed as a simply percentage. Total deaths over total population = %. Boom. Overly simple. No 2nd or greater derivative data, just pure raw number of deaths in a given population.

People will notice the drastic increase in deaths, and I feel will run to your other graphs, but you really need an attention grabbing opening.

Sorry for the self-important input. I speak from my experience as a busy ADHD addled manager with a quota on my time, attention, and effort. You have to overcome a reluctant and hostile audience, say a governor’s aide, that are disinterested and even disrespect your position. I needed 14 pt font bulleted or the best email, resume, or report went unread lol. Don’t let your great effort overwhelm the skeptics!!! Get them to page 2.

Again my apologies for being a know-it-all!!!! Truly a big fan.

Thank you for understanding my comments Joel. I’m not patronizing, but when the full understanding of the political and medical malfeasance is known it will because what you and Dr. Wolf, Steve Kirsch and others have sacrificed.

I’m passionate enough that I’m willing to risk being seen as a “windbag” lol. But I spent a career in aerospace engineering management and relied on statistics, and I personally love charts/graphs. As you said a picture is worth….

Unfortunately I learned most people don’t have that appreciation and understanding of how you arrive at your “pictures.” But the lede being just “deaths” will get your intended audience to pay attention. Page 1 will show us x% more people are continuing to die. That could be a family member, coworker, friend, or anyone we can relate to.

Thank you again for all you do, and for not feeling offended. It’s all about the marketing!!!!

Occam's Razor Simplified:

"The idiom "when you hear hoofbeats think horses, not zebras" refers to this principle that the most likely solution is the simplest one. This is not because simpler explanations are usually correct, but because you make fewer assumptions when looking for horses instead of zebras."

....does anyone else hear the hoofbeats? It's the horses, obviously....

So what's this "Covid" that was picking off the sick in 2020?

Expand full comment

For 6 weeks in spring, it picked off the already almost dead. If Ireland had done absolutely nothing, I reckon that would probably have been it.

So no midazolam needed?

Current practice in Dunedin Hospital here in NZ as well as Invercargill (run by the same outfit) is to exclude visitors.

Well, yes, there is that too! Remdesivir for some... Just pure neglect and DNRs for others...

Expand full comment

The massive overtreatment with ventilators, isolating the patients (because doctors were scared they'd catch it) and so them not receiving a normal treatment protocol - as well as, as you say, not getting visitors. People not going to hospital for normal emergencies, like chest pains etc, until it's too late. People getting a sniffle and imagining they're going to die and going to hospital, each time using up valuable resources. Lots of additional contributions to death rates during that panic period.

And the bodily panic too - everyone in a constant state of fight flight and producing different hormones etc. Denis Rancourt has dug out pre-2020 literature saying this is the number one mechanism to increase your chance of catching a respiratory virus.

I've seen the evidence that the virus was found in the blood of people screened for other things in 2019, across Europe. Although I'm ok with being wrong about this, my suspicion is that even the April 2020 peak was entirely caused by the panic and that had neither the media nor government mentioned COVID, nothing of note would have occurred.
