Kieran Healy on Nostr: The old version got torn in my office move so I redid my 2015-20 US All-Cause ...
The old version got torn in my office move so I redid my 2015-20 US All-Cause Mortality Poster and had it reprinted in a nice large size for the wall. I like this simple way of looking at the data because it does not even try to do any direct estimation of Covid mortality per se. It just shows (a) something happened to overall mortality rates in 2020, what could it be; (b) There's a lot of variation but still it happened everywhere; and (c) The size of this effect is visible from f***ing space.
