Unfortunately not mentioned in the article, how do these numbers compare to other countries?
- jeroenhd 4y agoHere's the officially reported excess mortality from the UK and its neighbours: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/excess-mortality-p-scores-projected-baseline?country=NLD~GBR~FRA~IRL~BEL https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/excess-mortality-p-scores... I'd say pretty similar overall, though the UK had a massive peak and then a sudden deficit in excess mortality where other countries didn't. France and Ireland haven't reported an uptick in excess mortality but their data hasn't been included from right around the most recent sudden rise. The pattern seems to be that there's an increase in excess mortality, with peaks following drops a few months later coinciding with COVID spread. Sadly, this website doesn't show any data prior to January of 2020, but excess mortality rates were down right up to the spread of COVID.

- ls612 4y agoThe US preliminary numbers suggest that since the end of the Omicron wave excess deaths have hovered between 0-5% (compared to 30% or more during major waves). A couple percent is likely still Covid suggesting that the underlying trend hasn’t changed much.
