‘Excess mortality’ continuing surge causes concerns

https://insurancenewsnet.com/i...urge-causes-concerns

Despite some signs that excess mortality rates are declining, life insurance executives and actuaries believe the numbers are alarming and could continue to drag earnings and surge death claims for years to come.

Excess mortality is the difference between the total number of deaths for a specific time period and the number that would have been expected. The numbers were naturally forecasted to climb during the pandemic, but some industry and health authorities are concerned the rates haven’t greatly diminished as COVID infection rates have declined.

Life insurers paid record levels of claims in 2021 as the pandemic drove mortality higher and the issue was widely cited in earnings reports as the drag on profits. In 2021, the most recent year for which data is available, the industry distributed a record $100.28 billion in total death benefits, according to BestLink. The higher-than-normal payouts began in 2020, the first year of the pandemic when insurers saw death benefits rise 15.4% , the biggest one-year increase since the 1918 Spanish Flu epidemic. The 2021 increase was 10.8%, but fell during the first nine months of 2022, from $74.27 billion in the same period in 2021. But that’s still higher than the $59.18 billion paid out during the same period in 2019 before the pandemic hit, according to BestLink.

No standard for measuring excess mortality

“There’s no standard way to measure excess mortality,” said Josh Stirling, founder of the Insurance Collaboration to Save Lives, a non-profit organization that seeks mitigate mortality losses by providing life insurers with tests to screen policyholders for health problems. “But if you use the data that seems most reliable it looks like, generally, we’re at 13.9 deaths per 100,000, which is up perhaps 7% from where it should have been. Is that catastrophic? Maybe not, but it should be lower.”

The Society of Actuaries polls of its members found that in August of last year 85% thought excess morality rates would continue to 2025. Two months ago, the same poll found that 79% believed excess mortality rates will continue through 2026.

The issue is clouded because figures vary widely depending on how the data is cut and adjusted for the time period, age, specific pathologies, and many other factors. Some executives think the current numbers are temporary or seasonal and don’t require the industry to react.

“We believe that insured population will continue to see declining excess deaths over the next several years reaching about 0% excess deaths by 2030,” said Fred Tavan, chief pricing officer at Legal & General America, a Maryland-based insurer and major provider of term life insurance in the U.S. “This is one of the reasons there haven’t seen any significant changes in insurance premiums during COVID or even after. A scan of insurance premiums across the industry from different carriers proves this out.”



Younger adult death rate up 20% in 2023

Others aren’t so sanguine and point to statistics from the U.S. Center of Disease Control that show mortality rates alarmingly rising for different categories. For example, younger adult mortality rates are up more than 20% in 2023, the CDC said. Cause of death data show increased cardiac mortality in all ages. And even as COVID-related causes declined in 2022, others rose, particularly stroke, diabetes, kidney and liver diseases.

“Consider the ripples of COVID-19 and its varying impacts, leading to higher rates of depression, suicide, and increased substance abuse,” said Samantha Chow, global leader for Life, Annuity and Benefits Sector at Capgemini, the giant multinational Paris-based consulting company. “This has set off a domino effect. From a life insurer's standpoint, and those dealing in retirement and long-term care solutions, there's a larger conversation at hand. Can the industry handle a sudden spike in claims? The surge in excess deaths caught carriers off guard, and our aging population is becoming more susceptible to illnesses or passing due to natural causes.”

Chow said there’s a real question of whether the insurance industry can sustain the enormous payouts the excess mortality rates will dictate.
“The real concern for life insurers lies in preparing for an unexpected wave of death claims and the impact on their assets under management,” she said. “Do they have enough reserves to weather these outflows, given the excess deaths? It's not just about death or health. It is about the industry's ability and readiness to manage this monumental outflow.”

Capgemini just published its World Life Insurance Report that revealed the upcoming largest inter-generational wealth transfer in history that is expected to cause a massive outflow of nearly 40% of life insurers’ assets under management (AUM), totaling $7.8 trillion, by 2040.
“When we factor in the rise of payouts on death claims, the magnitude of the situation demands urgent attention by the industry,” the report said.

Industry response questioned

Some observers think the industry has been slow to grasp the burgeoning problem, relying on old industry models that say “mortality rates always give back, and have for nearly 500 years,” according to one senior executive.

Stirling believes that expanded, aggressive and proactive health screening of policyholders would save lives and be a significant cost benefit for insurers. Though a startup, Stirling says his organization is poised to announce partnerships with major carriers to institute its mitigation programs. Members of his organization’s board include current and former executives from Farmers Group, Progressive, the Fortegra Group, the Indiana Public Retirement System, and the life and health actuary for the state of Georgia’s Commissioner of Insurance.

“We are led by insurance people trying to drive risk management around health into the insurance industry to empower and engage global insurers to save lives through bracket screening and intervention,” he said. “Screen test and triage is sort of our tagline. We would look a lot like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for life insurers, which was funded by the industry and brought airbags and seatbelt to autos year ago. However, we're also trying to disrupt the industry and create an ecosystem of for-profit companies that will make this happen.”

Since they’re the ones that are going to keep bleeding money, they should demand the accurate current numbers on Covid deaths and Covid deaths after “vaccination”. But starting from when the jabs rolled out on forward. It’s a guarantee that the .gov would add all covid fatalities to water down the percentages. I’d be VERY interested in that data.

By the end of 2020 the virus had taken out many, especially in the oldest age groups, who would have died quite soon anyway due to their weakened or ill condition. Absent C19, many of them would not have lived until today. Their deaths were hastened by a year or so.

Which means the excess deaths from 2021 to today should have gone negative, meaning fewer people were dying than in average years. The elderly person would have died of something this year, but instead he died in 2020 from C19. The remaining population today should be on average healthier than in an average year. The weak members of the herd were removed already.

The fact that there are excess deaths in 2021, 2022, and 2023 says there is something else, something very significant, impacting all age groups which cannot possibly be attributed to the virus.

It is obvious what it is, but the mainstream is silent.

CDC Makes Big Airport Announcement 11-9-23 Facts Matter with Roman Balmakov



https://www.bitchute.com/video...-ItpWd3QIItYDI4YBzXU

If memory serves, the CDC didn't do a damned thing when someone entered this country infected with EBOLA some years ago. Am I remembering that correctly??? IMHO, EBOLA is 1,000,000 times more contagious and deadly than this common cold that everyone is up their buttholes about.

We are just closer and closer to a police state. It just AMAZES me how people have VOLUNTARILY surrendered their Liberty and Freedom.

Excess deaths is the biggest news story of this century, maybe even bigger than that. The fact that it is ignored, says a lot.

UK Gov. to stop publishing ‘Deaths by C-19 Vaccination Status’ because the Data has shown for 2.5 years that the COVID Vaccine reduces Lifespan significantly & the Vaccinated account for over 9 in 10 COVID Deaths

The first dataset was published by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) in late 2021 and covered deaths by vaccination status between 1st January and 31st July 2021. Since then, there have been a further 8 reports produced with the final report covering deaths by COVID-19 vaccination status between 1st April 2021 and 31st May 2023.

Each subsequent report has included less and less data, almost as if the UK Government had something to hide.

For instance, the report published by the Office for National Statistics on 20th Dec 21 inadvertently revealed that COVID-19-vaccinated children were up to 52 times more likely to die of any cause than unvaccinated children.

Here are the calculated mortality rates by vaccination status among 10-14-year-olds based on the ONS calculated person-years contained in the report published 20th Dec 21 –

I’m sure the “biometric pathogen freedom killer” program would never be used to usurp even more power, drag people away to “quarantine” locations, or otherwise grip us with a tighter and tighter iron fist.

These people are traitors. Plain and simple.

Local News12 New York ran a story this week that shocked me both because of what happened as well as because they ran the story at all. Here is the unbelievable headline: “Orange County 15-month-old dies 2 days after 'well-visit' vaccinations.” The story included text, a video segment on the story, and it unironically reprinted in full (with a live link) the reporter’s ‘anti-vaxx’ tweet about the infant’s tragic death:

https://twitter.com/BlaiseGome...319067556536523?s=20



If you’re a twitterer, please give Ms. Gomez’s tweet a like and a grateful, restrained comment, and maybe a re-tweet. It’s important to encourage local reporters like Ms. Gomez to cover these cases, instead of helping the medical-industrial complex bury them in a shallow grave behind Anthony Fauci’s offices.

On October 17th, Katherine Palombi took her “perfectly healthy” daughter Melody to her pediatrician's office, the Herbert Kania Pediatric Group in Warwick — News15 actually named the practice — for Melody’s 15-month well-visit. The pediatrician gave Melody three vaccine injections: varicella, DTaP and Hib. Two days later, without any warning that anything was wrong, Melody suddenly and unexpectedly stopped breathing and her tiny baby heart attacked her.

EMS and then St. Anthony’s hospital medical staff provided emergency care but nothing helped. And listen to this: News12 asked the hospital for the baby’s records. The records showed Melody had liver failure, kidney failure, and cardiac arrest. All at once. With no warning. Two days after a well-visit where the pediatrician found nothing wrong.

An autopsy is pending, but come on.

The article got even more interesting. News12 asked the pediatrician, Herbert Kania Pediatric, for a comment. Of course they had no comment. If I were their lawyer, I’d have told them not to comment too: a lawsuit seems likely. From the Herbert Kania Pediatric Group’s perspective, this kind of news and bad publicity could destroy the practice.

We have come a long way to the point where news outlets feel empowered to report about vaccine injuries. Once the floodgate opens, it will become impossible to contain the flood of outrage and cries for justice. I think we are about to discover that the pandemic has cracked the rotten vaccine walnut wide open.

Remember these are just the beautiful people, the world class athletes, the notably famous that are dropping like flies. Imagine if the same attention was paid to all regular folks that “died mysteriously” over the last 2.5- almost 3 years since the “vaccine” became widely available. Of course, there will always be dissenting voices that are self deluded, blinded, and in many cases willfully ignorant to the fact that the vaccine injures and kills but choose to believe that government and big pharma would NEVER.

Supreme Court Delivers Blow to Vaccine Skeptics

The U.S. Supreme Court rejected to hear an appeal relating to COVID-19 vaccine requirements in the workplace, dealing a blow to vaccine skeptics across the nation.

On Tuesday morning, the Supreme Court orders list showed that it was denying to hear any further arguments in the case Katie Sczesny, et al. v. Murphy, Gov. of New Jersey, et al. The case focused on four New Jersey nurses who filed a lawsuit against New Jersey's COVID-19 vaccine requirements in the workplace, citing religious freedom and health concerns.

The Supreme Court did not provide any further explanation for its refusal to hear the case, but the decision allows a ruling in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit to stand. The lower court ruled that the vaccine mandate challenged by the nurses did not violate their Constitutional freedoms and allowed an executive order from New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy to stay in place.
Newsweek reached out to lawyers for the state of New Jersey and Murphy via email for comment.

"We are disappointed the Supreme Court did not take up this issue now, but hope that it will take up this question soon, whether in this case after final judgment or another case. We need our highest Court to provide guidance on this important question of liberty before another pandemic and another emergency vaccine," Dana Wefer, a lawyer for the four nurses who filed the lawsuit, told Newsweek on Tuesday.

The decision by the Supreme Court on Tuesday comes as some Americans have continued to question the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine and past requirements for workers to be inoculated during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In April of last year, the four nurses, Katie Sczesny, Jamie Rumfield, Debra Hagen, and Mariette Vitti, filed a lawsuit against the state of New Jersey, arguing that executive orders related to the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccine booster requirements were unconstitutional.

In one portion of their complaint, the nurses mention Murphy's Executive Order 283, which required healthcare workers to receive COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters.

"EO 283 violates the liberty and privacy rights protected by the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, including the right to refuse medical procedures and the right to not be medically surveilled by government actors," the nurses wrote.

They also argued that the vaccine mandates violated their religious freedoms, and one portion of the complaint explains that Sczesny was pregnant and did not want to receive a booster while pregnant. The complaint alleges that Sczesny was informed her pregnancy "was not a legitimate reason to wait to receive her booster" by her employer.

The challenge was later dismissed by the lower court of appeals, but the four nurses rechallenged, asking the Supreme Court to hear their arguments.

"Shot Dead" the movie...

This is the movie we wish we didn’t have to make. But this is a movie everyone needs to see. For the first time ever, hear the stories of covid shot deaths as told by the parents who lost their children. Shot Dead premiered on November 9, 2023 – the one-year anniversary of 18 year-old Trista Martin’s death from the shot, in her hometown of Tulsa (Trista is featured prominently in the film).

"A sketch of a theory of Covid pandemic elite class psychosis

During the pandemic, the elite class entered a state of mass psychosis, i.e., mass delusional thinking and behavior.

Now everyone who has worked with psychotic patients knows that one must not directly challenge delusional beliefs: challenging them entrenches these beliefs, causes aggression, sometimes even violence.

Well Covid critics were precisely those challenging those psychotic beliefs.

And the response was as could be expected: deplatforming, doxing, firing, political persecution.

You see, the real purpose of anti-misinformation measures put in place by elites was more to maintain the texture, continuity, and integrity of their own psychological projections as it was to ensure that everyone had the “correct information”.

Unfortunately because this understanding of reality had more to do with psychological projection than with reality itself, i.e., it was delusional, this effort to ensure the control of information only locked the elite class even tighter in the closed prison cell of their own delusion.

Free speech was important not because it would have been decisive but because it would have loosened the hold that this psychosis had over the elite class, which was nearly total.

Free speech would have introduced heterogeneous ideas, concerns, perspectives, values, etc. that could have shifted the obsessive monomaniacal psychosis of the elite class and helped it to call its own ideas into question, improving the rigor of science.

The capacity that must be taught to future elites is that of tolerance, of democratic values, of the valuation of perspectives other than their own, and the maintenance of this tolerance and largeness of soul precisely when it is most difficult: during times of stress and hysteria.

Only by cultivating these values and psychological capacities will it be possible for our decision makers to break free of their psychosis more quickly and readily, to avoid entering them, and to challenge them in the future—leading to better decision-making.

The alternative is catastrophe."
