In this prior post, it was discovered that the average excess death rate over the course of 2.5 years among those from age 35 to age 44 was 39.3%. Importantly, the time period was the period of moderately-high rates of delivery of experimental COVID shots: From the first quarter of 2021 to the second Quarter of 2023.
When the updated original COVID infection fatality rate (IFR) for age groups was published in late 2022, the age bands went from age 30-39 and from age 40-49 — so a crude, unweighted average of those two was used along with a reference population from 2009.
After assuming 100% spread of infection among the 42 million in that age band, you get a grand total of 9,552 COVID deaths from the 42 million COVID infections.
When the average in-theater death rate for the Vietnam War is computed, you can find the death estimate for 2.5 years of war: 17,165. Using the same 2009 reference population along with the ten-quarter average excess death of 39.3% from the Society of Actuaries report linked to at top, you get 73,360 premature (unnecessary) deaths:
And while Vietnam War deaths are overall deaths for 2.5 years, even though it is expected that nearly all were young, the top and bottom bars are for just the age band of 35-44.
The indication is that, in 2.5 years, excess death has been many times greater than 100% COVID spread could have caused, and even much greater than a land war in Asia. And this 2.5-year average for excess death in the era of COVID shots hides individual year variation, some of which was worse than the average.
The upshot is that, if interested in depopulation schemes, COVID shots are even more effective than war (COVID shots are approximately 4 times more lethal than war). Wars like the Vietnam War are capable of killing almost 10,000 young persons per year, while COVID shots are capable of killing almost 40,000 young persons per year.
