Not enough good news items these days but here's a beauty which should have most of the world sitting up and clapping .
Looks like Fatty Land , aka Land of the Angry People ,is slowly dissolving to become one huge desert area mostly made up by mentally unbalanced balls of moving lard .
But surely it's time to put my sparkling idea to test -- put all of these Lardy people out for fostering and adoption right across the planet , in order to spread the load . All 300+ million of the not so cute dough balls .
In that way Lardy Land will be freed - up to become the world's bread basket farming area for the poor and needy and major strains will be removed from the buckling tectonic plates .
Keep the world upright and safe by teaching Lardies to diet and attend weekly anger management courses .
That is real possible Climate Change .
Annual US Excess Deaths Relative To Other Developed Countries Are Growing At An Alarming Rate
Authored by Patrick Heuveline via TheConversation.com,
In 2021, more than 892,000 of the 3,456,000 deaths the U.S. experienced, or about 1 in 4, were “excess deaths.” In 2019, that number was 483,000 deaths, or nearly 1 in 6. That represents an 84.9% increase in excess deaths in the U.S. between 2019 and 2021.
Excess deaths refer to the actual number of deaths that occur in a given year compared with expected deaths over that same time period based on prior years or, as in this study, in other countries.
In my study, I compared the number of U.S. deaths with those in the five largest countries in Western Europe: England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Those five countries make for a good comparison because they are nearly, if not quite, as wealthy as the U.S. and their combined population is similar in size and diversity to the U.S. population.
I also chose those countries because they were used in an earlier study from another research team that documented a 34.5% increase in excess deaths in the U.S. between 2000 and 2017.
The acceleration of this already alarming long-term trend in excess deaths in the U.S. was exacerbated by the fact that the U.S. experienced higher death rates from COVID-19 compared with similar countries. However, COVID-19 alone does not account for the recent increase in the number of excess deaths in the U.S. relative to comparison countries.

The big idea
People in the U.S. are dying at higher rates than in other similar high-income countries, and that difference is only growing. That’s the key finding of a new study that I published in the journal PLOS One.In 2021, more than 892,000 of the 3,456,000 deaths the U.S. experienced, or about 1 in 4, were “excess deaths.” In 2019, that number was 483,000 deaths, or nearly 1 in 6. That represents an 84.9% increase in excess deaths in the U.S. between 2019 and 2021.
