In many countries around the world, more people have been dying than expected for months. The causes have not yet been clarified. But one thing is certain: the excess mortality has nothing to do with vaccination.
In the group of over 65-year-olds, excess mortality has been observed for a good year. That means, compared to the period 2015 to 2019, when the pandemic wasn’t there yet, more people are dying than one would expect. In Switzerland, mortality among the elderly has so far been above the expected range in 28 out of 45 weeks, and a very similar picture emerges in many other countries. But the cause lies in the dark.
