Mysterious Excess Mortality in 2022

[nivek]

Switzerland: 3000 more deaths than expected! Unprecedented excess mortality is a mystery for scientists but we know why​

The Federal Statistical Office had actually forecast a “death deficit” for 2022… But like in many other countries around the world, in 2022, Switzerland experiences an unprecedented excess mortality.

Since the beginning of the year, about 3,000 more people have died than expected. In the last eleven weeks (summer), 1,700 excess deaths have been recorded and scientists don’t know why.

According to the epidemiologist Christian Althaus, there has never been such an excess mortality in recent history.

The causes behind the unusual phenomenon are still unclear. Epidemiologists speculate that the Covid-19 virus, in combination with the heat wave of recent months, has caused the additional deaths.

Deviation from forecast is extreme​

Excess mortality has already been recorded in Switzerland (for example in the hot summer of 2003, during the severe flu epidemic in winter 2015 or during the last two pandemic winters) BUT NEVER AT THIS SCALE!

Right now, the deviation from the forecasts is extreme:

• In 2020: 1,500 EXCESS-DEATHS
• In 2021: 1,300 EXCESS-DEATHS
• In 2022: Already 3,000 EXCESS-DEATHS AND COUNTING… The numbers have doubled!

And how to explain that 1,700 excess deaths occurred within the last 11 weeks?
