The Curious Death Deficit in 2020
Post #549
Back in 2020, a curious thing happened for the first 9 weeks: median excess death rates remained negative. Here is a select group:
Excess death rates must always be one of three things: positive, negative, or zero. In the select group above, they were almost always negative. In a larger sample of 54 regions, examined for the first 9 weeks of 2020, no region recorded 0 excess death for any of the weeks.
This turns the experiment into a “coin-flip” — and the baseline expectation is that around 27 out of the 54 regions will have some positive excess death each week, while the other 27 will have some negative excess death.
But the results were nothing even remotely close to 27 of the regions having positive excess death in any of the 9 consecutive weeks under review here. In each of the nine, n=54 weekly samples, somewhere from 33 to 38 of the 54 regions reported negative excess death.
When the probability of consecutive predominance of negative mortality was determined using the weekly negatives as 27 for a Poisson mean, it came to 1.4 * 10^-11.
In long form, that probability is 0.000 000 000 014 — or 14 chances in a trillion. To put that into perspective, over the next 12 months, you are 60,000 times more likely to be struck by lightning (at 848 chances in a billion).
Evidence suggests that nations were playing “fast and loose” with their mortality data for the first 9 weeks of 2020 — because the chance of obtaining the consecutive predominance of negative mortality was too low (p-value = 0.000 000 000 014).

Annual probability of being struck by lightning
Adapted from: https://www.weather.gov/safety/lightning-odds
From 2009-2018, the average annual death reports from lightning are 27, indicating an average annual strike frequency of 270 (10% of strikes are fatal). The midpoint US population for that time window, using 2013 and 2014, was 318.35 million — for about 1 yearly lightning strike per 1.179 million people (and 848 yearly strikes per billion people).
Correct. I haven’t looked at every country, but this is related to one of my theories about NYC and other cities in the U.S. https://www.woodhouse76.com/p/where-is-the-proof-that-over-37000 (Note that the possibilities I’ve listed here for fraud in NYC aren’t exhaustive; there are others)
I also observed the same about England to some colleagues recently.
I believe the simultaneous death spikes around the world (and those that started a little earlier than the rest, like Iran, N Italy, and Madrid) include deaths from the past.
That would be fraud, of course, and part of the “coordinated response” we heard leaders call for from Jan 2020 onward.
Well spotted. Death shifting. They shuffled them into convenient time periods. All part of the big Covid grift.
