CEO of an Indiana insurance company claims deaths in the 18-to-64 group are up 40% from last year ???

You may have heard of "OneAmerica News Network" (OANN).  The company in the post below isn't that one.

The "OneAmerica" in this post is a $100 Billion insurance company, in business since 1877.  It has 2,400 employees and mainly sells life insurance, including group life insurance to employers in Indiana.

So at this point almost all of you are thinking "I don't live in Indiana so this can't be relevant to me."  Really?  I rarely post stuff that isn't highly relevant to good Americans, so keep reading.

Companies that sell life insurance are keenly aware of the age at which their policyholders (and other Americans) die.  All companies in the life-insurance business track deaths of policyholders by age, to three decimal places, because their profitability obviously depends on the spread between their rates and what they have to pay out to departed policy-holders.

Recently the CEO of OneAmerica, Scott Davison, took part in a teleconference, in which he dropped a bombshell: He said his company is seeing the death rate of *working-age Americans* up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels.

“We are seeing, right now, the highest death rates we have seen in the history of this business –- and not just our company,” he said. “The data is consistent across every player in this business.”

Davison said the increase in deaths is particularly troubling because most of the increase is among people 18 to 64 who work for companies that have group life insurance plans with OneAmerica.

Let's pause for a second.

With 250 million adult Americans, the law of big numbers says we shouldn't see a year-to-year change in the death rate of more than a percent or so.  Think about it: do a significant number of humans change their health or habits that much in a year?  No.  

What we *should* see are maybe one percent more deaths each year because there are more people in the country--roughly one percent more every year.  But the per-capita *rate*  shouldn't change more than a percent or so from the prior year--or the average of the past 5 or ten years--unless something very odd is going on.

And sure enough, there is.  It's just not what you think.

2019 deaths (per CDC, before the first covid death in U.S.): 2,854,838
Death rate: 869.7 per 100,000 people

2020 deaths: 2,913,144  (First year of Chyna virus.) deaths up 58,306 from the previous year.

But WAIT--duh offishul gruberment figure--from duh scrupulously-honest CDC--says about 300,000 Americans died from covid in 2019.  So how is it possible that total deaths only increased by 58,306 over 2019 ??  (For Democrats: 300,000 >> 58,306)  Did someone drop a decimal somewhere?

The answer to that mystery is in the definition of "a covid death."  Just after the plandemic began, the scrupulously-honest CDC issued an ORDER to all U.S. hospitals, instructing them that anyone who died after a positive PCR test for covid was to be reported as *due to covid,* regardless of the actual cause!  And this was when all the labs were running the PCR test at 40 cycles, which damn near guaranteed a positive result!

Hospitals were eager to comply with this order since the CDC would give 'em an extra $30,000 or so of taxpayer money for every death they reported as covid.  So people who died of gunshot wounds, but had a fake positive test, were...ah, you already guessed!

Same with motorcycle crash victims.  And strokes, heart attacks, you name it.  All that was needed was a positive PCR test!  Which, again, gave false positives roughly 90% of the time if run over 35 cycles.

Say, you don't suppose the CDC *order* might have caused the...number of...deaths...?  Nah.  

And at the same time--as the folks say, "mysteriously"--in 2019, the number of deaths from ordinary flu and heart attacks both dropped like joe biden's approval rating.  Wow, ain't that a coincidence, eh?

All of which is to say, if deaths are really up 40% in the last couple of months, that's SO bizarre that my initial reaction is to call bullshit.  

Digging a bit deeper, it looks like the CEO is actually blaming duh virus, claiming virus deaths are being "severely undercounted."  Don't think that's true: I think they're being seriously OVERcounted, to keep the fear going, to make unvaxxed people take the vax, and to keep up the pressure for all-mail voting in November.

So...I'll keep an eye on this and report any findings.
