Interesting analysis. Just took a quick look at the Australian data and seems to follow a similar pattern. Covid deaths in Aus is very low (<1000 in total). Mass vaccine push mid this year and seems to be an increasing gradient in deaths at around that time. Would love to see your analysis of this. Another interesting analysis in Australia would be to look at States with no covid + no lockdowns (like Qld and WA). There's an obvious increase in deaths (5-10%), but I'm not sure if statistically significant. Part may be due to population growth (<1%). Only other obvious attributing cause would be vaccines.

Good work as usual. Just a small correction. Sentence should read "This increase in excess mortality *has* continued to climb to the present date with another observable inflection", not "as." Sorry, I'm obsessive about spelling and grammar :|

Thanks! Me too but no matter how many times you proof read it, something gets by! Fixed now.

Nice work. Would be interesting to look at the rates of change here (first and second derivatives) to see whether the excess mortality rates are increasing or decreasing.

Will do if i can find the time. I think what's also interesting about the UK excess mortality data is that it corroborates the Pfizer RCT; 21 deaths in treatment group, 17 in control. Similar to what is seen here.

Would be good to see the actual study groups data carried forward to the current time line.

Do you mind if I have a look at different age-groups starting from your worksheet?

Please do whatever you like with it. It's just data downloaded from the ONS.

Which is the lesser of 3 evils - Pfizer vaccine, Moderna or Astra Zeneca? When you have to travel to visit a sick relative they get you with one of these vaccines because without it I cannot get a 'covid passport' (even though I had covid and now have natural immunity).

They will all kill you eventually in their own way, either directly or indirectly through increased to susceptibility to other pathogens, including COVID itself. If you're asking for my advice? Don't travel unless you want to be that sick relative. That's the "choice" your govt has given you, I'm afraid.

Yes, that's the 'choice' the UK government has given me (and every militant, hysterical pro vaxxer that drives them to these decisions). Yes, I have to see my sick relative (very close relative). My direct family all live abroad.
