Is this just number of deaths without population context? If so, it's falsely accumulating. Probably not a huge deal given the period and growth rate, but still

Is this just number of deaths without population context? If so, it's falsely accumulating. Probably not a huge deal given the period and growth rate, but still, not hard to adjust.
USA population growth is about 0.6%/year. Adjust total population on a per month basis and show the deaths per population instead of the total deaths.
Would love to see a bunch of age-stratified versions.

I think they adjust for population growth, but I am not sure. https://euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps/ https://euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps/ has similar data for most of Europe and Israel, and they adjust for population growth and a seasonal component (looks like a sine wave of period 1 year).
