The millions of casualties of a continued shutdown will be hiding in plain sight, but they will be called alcoholism, homelessness, suicide, heart attack, stroke, or kidney failure.”

Alcohol sales are up 250% since February.

Domestic violence and prescription drug abuse has also soared.

Regarding alcohol, I believe there will be A LOT more alcoholics and problem drinkers in America because of this.

Unfortunately, the CDC has changed its website, so the illness and death data is no longer convenient to access. This means that I am having difficulty actually looking at the causes and rates of death and comparing them to the situation a year ago.

You talking about this page?

Daily Updates of Totals by Week and State -- Provisional Death Counts for Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)

Regarding alcohol, I believe there will be A LOT more alcoholics and problem drinkers in America because of this.

A lot of working-class people at home, seeing their jobs go away.

A lot of small business owners at home, seeing that they don't have the funds to keep going.

A lot of seriously depressed people, with the numbers increasing every week.

So in three years or so all those folks who did not get cancer screening and died be counted as Corona deaths.

No. I mean the charts that show deaths from ALL causes. The CDC keeps these numbers and used to publish them in a format that was convenient to download. I cannot find it now. The data is there, but I would have to download each category and compile it myself. Doable but very time consuming.

As for deaths from Covid-19, I sometimes check it on the CDC website, which gives interesting details, such as how many excess deaths are attributable to Covid-19. But mostly for Covid-19 deaths, I just look at the daily case counts and do my own analyses. I’m more interested in the progress we are making to control and eliminate Covid-19 than the excess deaths it is causing.
