STUNNING. In 2020, there’s no increase in overall deaths. Covid has decreased every other type of death. To summarize, more covid and less everything else equals same as always.

A closer look at U.S. deaths due to COVID-19 - The Johns Hopkins News-Letter
its probably pretty true because this virus does pray upon the very weak. but 2 other points, as we go forward in the year we will have many more deaths due to the corona because the deaths are a lagging indicator.. so far only 1% of people that contract the corona die, what we don't have are the numbers of people that are going to have permanent damage to their bodies because they were strong enough in recovery not to die.

this virus can be compared to Polio.. the mortality rates were small with that disease as well, it also didn't spread as fast as this one does only due to the lower amount of population. polio tended to effect younger people more while the corona effects older population higher.
