The year isn't over yet. The graph shows an uptick in the last month of the data. December might be quite a deadly month.
[1] is an earlier study of excess deaths for several countries. "The US suffered some 275,000 more deaths than the five-year average between 1 March and 16 August". It looks like Spain has a significantly higher death rate as well.
Why did Spain and the US do so much worse than other relatively uncontrolled countries in Sweden, Africa, and Asia? Is it genetics? Population health/demographics/density?
