USA deaths are running 11% higher than normal/average.
He challenges anyone who doesn't believe him to seek out any database on total mortality. If you do that, you will find that the daily death count is "absolutely bang-on normal," Yeadon says.
For some months, the death count is actually slightly lower than the average norm over the past five years. And, he adds, "You cannot have a lethal pandemic stalking the land and not have excess deaths."

But are they accurate?
The UK counts a death as Covid related if one dies within SIXTY DAYS of having Covid. That is insane and cannot be accurate.
From the Article
www.ft.com...
"The government has overhauled the way coronavirus death data is compiled in England after scientists revealed Public Health England had been counting people as having died from the virus regardless of when they tested positive.
The move meant the UK death toll was revised downwards by 5,377 to 41,329 on Wednesday after a review concluded the daily death figure should only include deaths which had occurred within 28 days of a positive test. The new methodology brings England in line with rest of the UK".
Following an extensive debate between government ministers and scientists over how best to record the data, a new weekly set of figures will also be published for deaths that take place within 60 days of a person reporting a positive test.

My states goverment has taken resposibility. In victoria australia we have been locked down for pretty much the last 9 months.
New cases have been 0 for 28 days.
It takes discipline, it has been very hard for most.
Yesterday i walked to my local grocer without a mask for the first time in so long.
So long as people can be collectively sensible, we can all get through this.
And every step of the way, vocal groups have either dismissed or argued against everything our state leader has done, but we stuck to it.
Please everyone, be safe and sensible
