The Great Culling

Post #554

Deaths can either be due to natural causes, such as to common diseases, or they can be due to “unnatural” causes. The “unnatural” causes are called external causes and are often abrupt and often the outcome of a personal choice.

Accidents, homicides, and suicides all fall under the moniker of “external causes.” Car accidents would be included, but so would those accidents occurring when in the hospital or in the operating room.

After April of 2020, external-caused deaths rose dramatically, so much so that there is a noticeable gap between the April 2020 rate and the May 2020 rate:

The regression equation predicts that, every 4 years, the monthly rate of externally-caused deaths rises by another 1 per million (another 12 per million on a yearly basis). The last 9 years reveal a nation that is at war with itself, where abrupt deaths are progressively becoming a greater share of all deaths.

This can be shown by comparing the monthly death rate due to malignant neoplasms (cancer) to the rate for external causes:

It is appalling that no progress in cancer death rates (blue) has occurred in since 2014, but even more appalling is the increasing share of deaths that are external-caused (e.g., abrupt or “sudden”) deaths.

In the USA, the medical system is “sick” and evidence suggests that the prognosis is so bad that it is no longer even serving the public interest.
