This increase in deaths is not unexpected. SARS-CoV-2 is a really nasty virus, which lingers in the organs, possibly for life, and may cause long term ill health effects and premature deaths.
A new study showed that SARS-CoV-2 enters almost every organ of the body, and stays there long term. So once you catch it, it may remain alive in your body forever.
Healthy people often catch this virus showing no acute symptoms (asymptomatic), so may not even know that they have caught it. This virus can stealthily enter the bodies of millions of people, without them knowing, and then set up home in all their organs, beginning the long term job of potentially slowly eroding their health.
Over 50% of the population have now caught SARS-CoV-2 at some point, and all these people may be ticking time bombs for ill health. By their irresponsible behavior, some risked having an uncharted new virus enter their body, where it may smolder away for the rest of their life (a rather short life in many cases, as we now see, with all these excess deaths).
If these people had been vaccinated, that would have helped reduced the chances of catching SARS-CoV-2, and likely reduced the damage that SARS-CoV-2 causes in their body if they did catch it. If these people have worn a decent FFP2 or N95 mask, they might have avoided inviting SARS-CoV-2 to be a permanent resident in their body. If they had socially distanced and avoided busy public spaces, they may have kept their body uncontaminated from this persistent virus.
If the 50% of the population with SARS-CoV-2 living in their bodies are now dropping dead in alarming numbers, well, that's the indirect result of all the misinformation posted online about SARS-CoV-2 being no big deal.
Ironically, much of this misinformation is also posted on Longecity, a forum which is supposed to be about lengthening life, but people here seem more intent on having a life shortened by SARS-CoV-2. Go figure!
Longecity turned into a pro-death forum!
