17% lmao what kinda made up bs is that.
I never said the total death rate decreased lmao?. It goes up roughly 1% per year and it only went up 1% in 2020 and 2021 just like every other year, you can find that on any legitimate total death toll tracking website that isn’t throwing covid in your face.
The only reason you’d see more patients this year in a hospital is because the surrounding hospitals are closed or not accepting patients due to staffing so they end up at your hospital
But in average total population of patients in USA , theres not more people in the hospital than other years.
"Patients in hospitals" is a garbage metric. They shut down a massive number of services for a significant portion of both years. You're being very dishonest.
Deaths per 100k
2014: 724.6
2015: 733.1
....
2018: 731.9
2019: 715.2
2020: 835.4
You're just making shit up lol. You can find age-adjusted mortality rates by the year just by searching "Mortality in the United States, 20XX".

Thats age-adjusted
Not crude rates
You realize the population doesn't magically add 15% deaths from one year of age, right? Like, that could be part of it, but there's no reason the age-adjusted number should go up by 15% a year when it usually goes up 1% a year, right?
The age-adjusted number is the one you should use when drawing conclusions about, ya know, the state of the country. Because we had a pandemic that greatly increased the yearly mortality?
Also, pretty funny how you cite "It goes up by about 1% a year" and then say "that's not the crude numbers". The 1% a year you are referencing is also the age adjusted mortality rate
