The data on excess mortality has the very nice advantage that it removes
all wrong diagnosis from the game. Please, play with
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/c...ess_deaths.htm a bit:
In California, COVID-19 has been similar to the 17-18 Flu, in Florida
or DC even weaker.
But in the US overall, the COVID-19 excess is around 70,000 compared to
15,000 at the 17-18 Flu.
You better not look at New York State, Massachusets, or even New Jeresy
where the excess was 150% over normal or New York City where the excess
reached 300% over normal.

Look again. NYC was about 600% above normal.
At the same time, NY State was about 125% above normal.

New York seem to be the worst. Go thee unto the aforementioned URL.
Select a Dashboard - Excess deaths with and without COVID-19
- Update Dashboard
Select Jurisdiction - New York
The excess deaths are in dark blue. Drag the mouse over the peak and
it will show about 125% excess deaths.

However, that's for New York State with New York City excluded from
the data. The "Figure Notes" below the graph proclaims:
"Data for New York excludes New York City"
So NYC is tabulated separately.
Select a Dashboard - Excess deaths with and without COVID-19
- Update Dashboard
Select Jurisdiction - New York City
Drag the mouse over the peak. The info box shows excess deaths at
596.7% to 649.5%.

I imagine Tom will say all those people who died were just volunteers
participating in the big hoax.
