Is This Why The Numbers Were Padded?
Previous Stack: Why did Alberta Retroactively Add 50+% of COVID Deaths to Pre-Vax Roll-out Numbers?
In my previous post, I uncovered some troubling numbers in that a single Canadian Province - Alberta, had padded the number from 2020 on COVID stats and since it has opened an entire world of more troubling information.
The first thing I want to focus on is what the padding for 2020 looks like, how it translates into 2021 and what the overall situation is looking like.
Since the vaccines have rolled out, there has been an awful lot of support for these from our provincial and federal governments, roll-out of vaccine passports and some easing of restrictions. It’s also started a divisive fire between those who have been vaccinated and those who haven’t - a lot of name calling and blame and shaming mixed into the equation, because of course, it’s the disease ridden stubborn anti-vaxxers that are filling up the hospitals!
When I first started digging into this, I was looking at one specific thing:
The percentage of people who have died from COVID that had no Conditions. This information can be found in the Provincial Data, and of course is updated when additional deaths are added to the counts.
I’ve quoted from this page and linked this page specifically dozens of times but had only started to pay attention to it when I noticed that the Average Age of Death from COVID in Alberta was dropping a lot more rapidly in 2021 than did in 2020. In poking around, I noticed that there was some fluctuation in this chart and decided to drill into it.
Using the Wayback Machine/archived information, I drilled this down to the early days of the Provincial Dashboard and found this as the result:
Where there was a decline in Deaths with people who had no Conditions; up to,
A Massive Spike in people with no conditions dying from COVID that normalized; to
A gradual increase to current.
Taken by itself, I think this is pretty interesting. We seemingly were doing better into the New Year and then something happened to cause that massive spike and now to an increase in the number of people with no conditions dying.
The January-March Spike may be for a couple of reasons, one being that this is the height of flu season and when we would normally see the greatest amount of deaths from influenza. As influenza can impact a larger and more general mix of people, this could be it. Again, on it’s own, interesting but still more information required.
Next thing, I dug into was the Severe Outcomes because of the breakdown by age stratification, instead of just by way of “Conditions”. Current Data:
A total of 3026 deaths, spread across the board. A couple of things worth noting here, one - since they are planning to Vaccinate Children from 5-11, interesting to note that there has only been 1 single death under the age of 20 in 20 months of Global Pandemic and 77,729 Cases Identified. Identified because we have no idea how many children were asymptomatic, these were only the unfortunate ones who got the brain stab test.
Let’s wayback this and see what it looked like pre-vaccination.
Again, using the wayback machine and using the federal government cuts, I am using December 15th, 2020 - that lines up with the press announcement from Dr. Deena of 760 Deaths.
Now, I am only focusing on 5 of the age groups, for specific reason.
Looking at the difference from age 30-39, we went from 5 deaths pre-vaccine to 28 total. To break this down, if we use a 4% “No Condition” rate at 28 deaths, we get 1 person. One person with No Comorbidities spread across 10 years of age stratification and between males and females. It’s hard to focus on how we could do better on saving less than a single person, when our there are over 3000 deaths for the province. There’s no point.
40-49, was the most interesting category for me and I will dive into that shortly. What is important to notice is the increase in mortality in younger people since the start of the pandemic and since the roll out of vaccines.
Death in Age Stratified Groups increased by:
30-39, 440%; 40-49, 1260%; 50-59, 917%; 60-69, 454%; 70-79, 314%; 80+, 235%
The vaccines were supposed to be the End of COVID by herd immunity, but if you look at the difference in the first 9 full months of the pandemic before vaccines and the following 10.5 since, the vaccines haven’t seemingly done anything. In fact, we were seemingly better off before the vaccines rolled out.
10x the amount of deaths following vaccination roll outs, is not success - 40-59 age groups. 1162 people and the largest actual increase over the age of 80 shows that we are still not focusing on the people who are at the Highest Risk of death from COVID.
40-49.
Pre-Vaccines, there were 5 deaths from COVID.
Check this out. Over the last 4 months or 120 days, under Vaccine Outcomes in the Provincial Numbers, there were 7 people, fully vaccinated that died from COVID and 23 total deaths:
Without vaccines, 5 deaths in 10 months.
Fully vaccinated, in the last 4 months/120 days - 7 deaths.
More people died in a shorter time after having been vaccinated than did before vaccines rolled out!
Imagine surviving 16 months of pandemic, following the vaccine recommendations and then becoming a COVID mortality statistic.
This is actually quite troubling.
But this isn’t even the full story yet.
You see, a while back I did a stack on Did the Lockdowns and Mask Mandates Save Lives? What I was looking at was the excess deaths realized over this period because there is a very notable spike in mortality for 2020:
Mid-September when I did my analysis, I used the Provincial Data Dump. Now that I know that this information was padded, I wanted to have another look at this.
First things first…Identify the Number of COVID deaths reported vs what the actual Data Dump says. This was not easy. Due to the New Years Holiday and slower numbers being reported, all I could do was average out COVID mortality by the wayback numbers reported on January 4, 2021 - 1168 and the December 29th, 2020 numbers being 1028, allowing for delayed reporting and assuming average deaths over the span of days, a 2020 COVID Death total of 1098. Total COVID deaths reported for 2020 by the data dump, 1532. 434 COVID deaths pad the 2020 mortality stats.
YoY deaths from 2019 to 2020 was 3042.
With the calculated total of COVID deaths off of actual reported numbers, only 36% of the total increase in mortality can be attributed to COVID.
What caused and why did we see an increase of 64% all death mortality during 2020?
1944 additional deaths were added to Alberta over an above the 1098 caused by a global pandemic. This can be partially explained by a number of factors based on aging population and newly landed into the province, but cannot compensate for all.
Are the initial measures used to mitigate mortality to COVID responsible for killing 2x as many people as the Virus?
What does it look like after?
Well, from above - prior to COVID Vaccine Roll-Out, there were 1,098 deaths - give or take a few…Since then, there have been an additional 1,928 or about 2x the death rate.
In the beginning of the pandemic we did an absolute terrible job. We weren’t:
isolating sick people;
wearing masks;
social distancing;
working from home;
limiting our personal shopping or restaurant visits;
………………
These things were eventually added to the measures we would take to “Save Gramma”. We were, washing our hands and touching elbows instead of shaking hands.
SCIENCE!
As we implemented these measures and up to the vaccine, we accelerated all cause mortality in the province to being 4x over average and to be 2x greater than that of COVID. Did our initial measure kill people?
Since then, we’ve maintained these initial measures and added a vaccine x 2, in different mixtures, based on availability and not conforming to the manufacturers standards on length of time between doses.
What we are seeing now is that in age groups that were of almost no risk prior to some of these measures up to and including vaccinations are now dying at a much more rapid rate - some of them up to 10x. What has or is causing this?
The information that we are given always steers towards a particular benefit from the sacrifices that we’ve made. All of the data suggests that everything we’ve done up to now has been an abysmal failure. Not only did more people die in 2020 with no explanation by 2x over what COVID did, but now more people that were at no risk from COVID are suddenly dying given the vaccinations, incentives and restrictions based on having/not having them?
And now that we can see the ‘corrections’ in the data, Is This Why The Numbers Were Padded?
Keep putting these stats out there. We need the truth!
Simple answer is usually the correct one. Vaccines are driving the virus. Marek's vaccine studies and hypothesis appears to be right.
