This doesn’t seem to factor in the rates of covid over time. In Israel there was a huge run up of cases just before vaccination began [1], which then really plateaued. This is a much more plausible explanation for the shape of the excess mortality curve in the younger age group. This is the second somewhat ‘contrarian’ analysis I have seen which wilfully ignores the rates of covid19. The other one was showing that Sweden’s strategy did not result in excess deaths, but conveniently stopped the analysis just before the spike in cases (and deaths) showed up.
