gfp. I have evidence that I acquired since the start of the COVID BS. In my main Minneapolis paper, The Star and Tribune, the 2 week average obituaries at the start of COVID was like 325-350 weekly in the 2 week average. It stayed that way for at least a year. It maybe inched up to 375-390 by last spring. Then, it started going up when it normally would fall because flu deaths drop in the warm summers. it soon went up to 450 and has been climbing since. Last Wednesday it was 575. I think it may drop a bit this week as some held off obits duing the holidays. to maybe 540 or such next Wednesday.

The Wednesday average is most accurate. Around the weekends, I think it is messed up a bit, maybe some of 3 weekends are counted twice or such. Today the average is 728.

350 to 550 in 2 years is scary. Compound 26% per year for ten years, and wow. And they are not done, more vaccines (so called) are coming out.

All news papers might not do a 2 week average. But you could take a big city near you and do the same by the week, keeping track. Or go to any big city, obits in their papers are usually free to read and track the numbers.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away--Wows happen!!!
