Why are Brits Dying Excessively -- And Not from COVID? From May to December 2022, tens of thousands more U.K. citizens died than usual.

The Mirror is a British tabloid news outlet that some don’t take seriously. But as Archie Bunker used to say about the National Enquirer—sometimes tabloids provide news you won’t find elsewhere. I do take The Mirror seriously. I think The Mirror, The Daily Mail, and The Guardian all do some good journalism—more than the BBC, in my opinion.
However, this article I found today is disappointing and typical in covering of excess deaths.
The writer (Kieren Williams) scratches his head throughout the piece. He’s so puzzled as to why there were 32,441 excess deaths in England and Wales (not counting Covid deaths) from May to December last year.
Kieren writes:
These shocking figures raised a number of important questions about what is happening to the country’s populations, how it's changing, and why so many more people are dying.
Ever since the Covid pandemic, excess deaths have fluctuated wildly month on month, tumbling well below the five-year average or spiking far above it.
The spikes in excess deaths can be attributed to a number of causes, but it isn’t clear what’s driving these spikes or causing these drop-offs.
Similarly, earlier in 2022, excess deaths dipped well below average levels, with one expert group speculating to the Mirror that a ‘mortality displacement’ effect might explain why so many deaths are bunched up in the space of several months, being passed on from the months prior.
Professor David Coleman, Emeritus Professor of Demography at Oxford University, told the Mirror that no one knew for certain what had caused so many deaths throughout last year.
He pointed out that, post Covid, the UK’s population had been changed through the deaths of a significant proportion of elderly due to the virus.
He explained: “Once those poor people have been packed off, the remaining population should be healthier, there should be a period afterwards where deaths are lower than usual but that hasn’t happened.”
But he highlighted two key reasons that could contribute towards spiking excess deaths, the fact Britain’s getting older, and gaining a larger average body-mass index. (source)
The article then tries to place a ton of the blame on Britain’s population getting older and fatter.
“The population is getting older, and also the population in Britain is the fattest in Europe and rather vulnerable to diseases notably heart disease and diabetes; some people have been forecasting separately from Covid that death rates would continue to get worse because the country is so unhealthy,” said Professor David Coleman of Oxford U. (source)
Influenza. Pneumonia. Summer heat. The usual suspects are brought out once again as possible reasons for the massive uptick in UK death cases.
The writer’s closing sentence: “Which still leaves tens of thousands of dead Brits, with no clear explanation as to quite how they died.”
Unbelievable.
The article never mentions the mRNA vaccine as a possible contributing factor to Britain’s excess deaths. Not once.
The Mirror completely ignores…wait for it….

It appears to be a nasty stomach bug. Ricky should be okay. Hopefully. He’s one of the last funny comedians we have left.
