In this prior Substack, it was shown that COVID could not serve as the explanation for the high reported death rates among the unjabbed young adults in England. This Substack extends the analysis to cover the lower half of those of middle-age: age 40-49. Here are the month-specific death rates from April 2021 going forward:
Using the median infection fatality rate (IFR) of COVID for those from age 40 to age 49 — i.e., 35 deaths per 100,000 infections (PMC9613797) — then even if 100% of everyone got COVID inside of the single month of August 2021, it is still not possible for COVID to explain even 25% of the excess death.
Like the young adults who remained unjabbed, those of middle age also died at rates that are not even mostly explainable by postulating COVID as the cause.
The usual or typical thing to do when unexpected (excess) deaths occur, but no official cause of death can explain them, is to open up a criminal investigation, in order to determine if there was foul play.
Ideally, all excess (unexpected) deaths should be explained.
Because most (over 50%) of excess deaths in those under age 50 in England are not officially explainable, the possibility exists of foul play on a massive scale.

no certainly not...I have a friend going in for a third asking, "wonder why all the deaths"? People can't hear my words...
