How bad is the rise in mortality?
So bad funeral companies are starting to worry.
Today Service Corporation International, the largest for-profit funeral operator in North America, had its quarterly earnings call. SCI had another great quarter, you’ll be pleased to hear! So far in 2022 the company has made almost $500 million in profits - and its stock rose more than 10 percent today after its earnings report.
(Death is your best investment!)
...
the third quarter of this year, we did 15% more calls than we did in the third quarter of 2019. That is not what anybody would have anticipated and that has just a very de minimis amount of Covid deaths
...
Covid is gone. But people keep dying. Why?
Unsurprisingly, Ryan did not mention mRNA vaccines anywhere. Why would he? Doing so would only make for headaches he and Service Corporation do not need.
But, earlier in the call, he did point to “more cancer deaths” and more broadly a decline in overall health:
We believe these excess services are more permanent in nature into a combination of aging demographics, higher risk, less healthy lifestyle developed during the pandemic.
Ryan also suggested delayed medical care might be an issue.
These explanations are… strained, at best. Aging demographics are hardly new, and the lockdowns that drove a “less healthy lifestyle” ended as early as mid-2020 in most red states and by early 2021 almost everywhere. Opioids and overdoses generally remain a horrendous crisis, but deaths appear to have peaked in early 2022 and fallen slightly since. And for all the discussion of delays in medical care, hospitals and doctors offices have functioned essentially normally for at least 18 months.
In any case, the United States is hardly alone in seeing a large and so far unexplained spike in deaths in 2022. Countries from Germany to Australia to Taiwan are seeing similar trends.
They all have something in common. No points for guessing what.
In any case, Service Corporation is expecting business to stay good for years to come.
“These trends are hard to reverse quickly,” Ryan said. “I hope three, four, five years from now will subside a bit. But I don't think it's any time soon.”
Nothing directly about Covid but “he did point to “more cancer deaths” and more broadly a decline in overall health:”
...which is attributed to denied proper health care due to Covid restrictions. About 30% of my area are still wearing that GD masks. Must be difficult going thru life so afraid. And so stupid.
You stab em,we slab em.
Masks are the MAGA hats for the left.
The baby boom generation will be dying off in the years ahead.
The leading edge of boomers are 76 years old today. Just based on aging, we would expect the future to be bright for the funeral industry.

Every time I see a mask-wearer I think, “When your time comes, you’re gonna die anyway. So why not enjoy life rather than hiding behind a mask in fear?”
Any statistician/life insurance actuary will tell you that mortality rates of people in the 25-60 age range are up significantly since 2021.
Young people of working age are dying in higher numbers than any time since WW2.
The covid vaccines are going to kill more people than Cecil B De Mile.

The mask wearers are the ones who are likely fully booo$ted.
The fully booo$ted ones are the ones with higher cancer REURN rates, lower immunity, and, greater illness/death.
Only, our lying media and CDC refuse to report on this.
The concentration of street Drugs went up another power of 10 over the past 10 years. There are a lot of ODs on prescription and street drugs that get classified by a friendly doctor as something else to make the life insurance just pay up to the spouse left behind.
That is how I feel. I take immunosuppressants because I had transplant surgery last year, and I’m not wearing a mask except at the doctor’s office. I see a few people in a club I belong to wearing them. Two are elderly, and one is probably a little older than me. I suppose I should wear one in group settings, but I don’t feel it’s necessary.
Hmmm, 500 mil. I’m gonna have to up what I charge SCI.

Media outlet.
Does anyone know of a reputable and reliable location that posts tabulated data of deaths and mortality rate in something close to real-time across the nation?
The only data I find is more than two years old. That seems unrealistic to me that it is that much delayed. It also seems suspicious.
