Pierre Kory and Mary Beth Pfeiffer – The Hill Dec 12, 2023
Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Robert Califf recently took to X to mourn the “catastrophic” decline in U.S. life expectancy.
But his post, which hit on smoking, diet, chronic illness and health care, ignored the obvious: People are dying in abnormally high numbers even now and long since COVID-19 waned. Yet public health agencies and medical societies are silent.
Life insurers have been consistently sounding the alarm over these unexpected or, “excess,” deaths, which claimed 158,000 more Americans in the first nine months of 2023 than in the same period in 2019. That exceeds America’s combined losses from every war since Vietnam. Congress should urgently work with insurance experts to investigate this troubling trend.
With the worst of COVID behind us, annual deaths for all causes should be back to pre-pandemic levels — or even lower because of the loss of so many sick and infirm Americans. Instead, the death toll remains “alarming,” “disturbing,” and deserving of “urgent attention,” according to insurance industry articles.
Actuarial reports — used by insurers to inform decisions — show deaths occurring disproportionately among young working-age people. Nonetheless, America’s chief health manager, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, opted in September to archive its excess deaths webpage with a note stating, “these datasets will no longer be updated.”
Money, of course, is a motivating issue for insurers. In 2020, death claims took their biggest one-year leap since the 1918 influenza scourge, jumping 15.4 percent to $90 billion in payouts. After hitting $100 billion in 2021, claims slowed in 2022, but are still above 2019. Indemnity experts are urging the adoption of an early-warning program to detect looming health problems among people with life insurance and keep them alive.
Unlike in the pandemic’s early phase, these deaths are not primarily among the old. For people 65 and over, deaths in the second quarter of 2023 were 6 percent below the pre-pandemic norm, according to a new report from the Society of Actuaries. Mortality was 26 percent higher among insured 35-to-44-year-olds, and 19 percent higher for 25-to-34-year-olds, continuing a death spike that peaked in the third quarter of 2021 at a staggering 101 percent and 79 percent above normal, respectively.
“COVID-19 claims do not fully explain the increase in incurred claim incidence,” the Society said. COVID-19 deaths dropped 84 percent from the first three quarters of 2021 to the same period in 2023.
To some extent, we know what is killing the young, with an actuarial analysis of government data showing mortality increases in liver, kidney and cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes. Drug overdoses also soared nationwide, but not primarily in the young working class.
Therein lies the most pressing question for insurers, epidemiologists and health agency officials. Why is the traditionally healthiest sector of our society — young, employed, insured workers — dying at such rates? Public health officials aggressively oversaw the pandemic response, for better or worse. Why aren’t they looking into this?
In the United Kingdom, where post-pandemic excess deaths in similar demographics also persist, a government-funded independent inquiry is underway. “With each passing week of the COVID inquiry,” the BBC reported recently, “it is clear there were deep flaws in the way decisions were made and information provided during the pandemic.”
The United States needs such an examination of the measures taken to fight the pandemic. This probe — by a high-level, unbiased commission — should focus on what worked and what did not.
Lockdowns limited access to education, social interaction and health care with documented harm to childhood development, mental health and the economy. Treatment protocols dictated how doctors should deliver COVID care — primarily in hospitals and with expensive medicines — and limited early access to generic drugs that might have helped.
Vaccines were given to more than 270 million people, among them babies, pregnant women and workers under employer mandates. The therapeutic’s “warp speed,” emergency use authorization must be part of any post-pandemic analysis, in light of more than 1 million reports of possible harm to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System and a new Yale University study validating a chronic post-vaccination syndrome.
Finally, government officials who sanctioned unprecedented censorship of dissent — enforcing pandemic measures through media pressure — must be called to account.
Actuaries and industry analysts predict excess deaths will continue among people with life insurance through 2030 and are “anticipated to be highest at younger ages.” This prediction defies normal expectations of mortality for a robust population of people with life insurance. Now consider how other disability-afflicted, poorly insured Americans may fare.
To ensure future generations are protected and to be ready for the possibility of another pandemic, Congress needs to assess what worked and what did not.

Not just in Amerika. Even the Daily Fail reported the other day that many sheeple were dying, especially the over 50s.
It’s not just Covid, or the jabs. Other bioweapons are being released. We see articles about the rise in common diseases.
I don’t think this is population reduction, I think it is more about the recycling of wealth to keep the economy from sinking.
They are out of money, so to cut the dead weight off the balance sheet, get rid of the useless eaters on Social Security – who pay no tax but eat away at your budget.
Let’s calculate the savings of 158,000 dead Amerikans who draw on average 1800 a month on SocSec.
1800 x 12 x 158000 = 3.4 billion per year
Hey that’s a start and adds up to real savings!

THE PUBLIC LEVIATHAN AWAKES TO THE LIES OF THE NWO
As the huge mass of the general public slowly wakes up to what crimes the Governments have committed, the people have increasingly looked to the Internet for real news and have stopped buying Murdoch newspapers to the point where they now give them away free in Supermarkets.
Figures for those who bother to vote at all have dropped through the floor, and the BBC has since the start of WWII increasingly used propaganda and sport as red herrings to manipulate and distract peoples views and dumb them down.
Hitler’s Germany had a popular magazine targeting the NWO was “Germany Awake” and now Internet-based news ezines are enjoying massive success in following suit in similar vein.
After WWII before Churchill was thrown from office a secret operation began, that was as big as the war operation itself.
Lord Cherwell and Lord Rothschild’s plan was to change history alter public perceptions attitudes and thinking and distort reality, of this was what Hollywood calls “black films or Film Nior”, and attitude-changing films such as Brokenback Mountain, a film about normalising Homosexuality, and Schindler’s List, a film to reinforce wartime racist stereotyping based on a fictional novel by Thomas Keneally became the norm.
Now known as Social engineering this whole idea was brought up and refined by Churchill’s doctor Lord Moran among others, with Military psychologists to explain that although millions of men were being demobbed from the forces, homes and jobs were scarce and we needed to import in huge numbers to, “do the jobs our people would not do, insults like this to the men who fought the governments war for it, resulted in a batch of ex-servicemen starting up a pro-UK equal rights organisation called The National Front which saw huge numbers of ex serviceman and others queuing round blocks all day in many UK cities to join up, before the government agencies smeared it and wrecked it from inside.
Operation Blackbird was a psychological operational scheme set up initially from Porton Down, Britain’s chemical warfare base, and not to be confused with Operation Blackbird the later crop circle investigation. The Blackbird is the first bird awake in the morning and the first one to sing to the others that a new dawn is breaking, and folklore has it that the first bird to sing sets the tune for the day.
Because of Britain’s ridiculous policy during WWII that Communist Russia was an ally, a quick about face had to be put in place for the British people to now understand that “good ‘ole Uncle Jo Stalin” was nothing of the sort and we had to prepare for nuclear exchanges in what became the Cold War.
I feel I should now speak out about some secret aspects.
WWII airfields across the country took on a new lease of life, the huge secret underground bunker added to North Weald airfield during WWII, now extended again and intended to be a radio centre for London in the event of an ICBM military conflict and a nuclear control centre with several motorways from London initially to get bigwigs like Winston Churchill away to a secret luxury bunker in Canada, while his people suffered the horrors of his war.
Willingale airfield in Essex was actually enlarged at the end of the war, runways extended to be a mile long, deserted and dilapidated hangars fitted with shiny new padlocks and reinforced doors full of large boxes and crates from what are now called Pharmaceutical companies and said to hold chemical weapons. Men in civilian clothes but believed to be military types would constantly drive round the outside, plans for the old SOE base at RAF Tempisford and only referred to as ” 161″ were for a EW or early warning site called a “Special Hospital” and the purpose built RAF hospital at Ely Cambs being on a hill, had a mass of listening devices hidden on a concrete reinforced fake hospital water tower. Propaganda from the News media would say that the US had nuclear weapons at X bases, while in fact they were dummies and the real weapons kept eslewhere.
The agreement for the US to have bases in the UK was for the length of WWII, then extended for the Cold War and now because Churchill signed away Britain to the US banks for the money to fight Hitler who threw out these same banks, to give Germany back to the same bankers, the USA has bases on each of our old colonies and is on British soil in perpetuity.
Among Blackbird’s policies was to single out Whistleblowers for ridicule, reputation destruction, job loss and social exclusion such as MI5 operatives David Shayler and Annie Machon. Rita Pal the doctor who exposed the Liverpool Care Pathway which was implementing euthanasia in British hospitals on elderly and “useless eaters”, US Ambassador Joseph Wilson who told the truth about the wars on Iraq, Craig Murray the British ambassador who told of official support by the British Government of the use of terror and torture tactics, or Michael J Nappe the dentist who exposed the dangers of Mercury in teeth fillings, are among a long list who have suffered for their honesty to the people.
The extinction of whistleblowers has been increasing since Rudolf Hess. Princess Diana being perhaps the most high profile and while planning to take her landmine banning campaign to Palestine ensured her death. Dr David Kelly and several British politicians – Christopher Shale, Hugh Gaitskell, Robin Cook and possibly John Smith were permanently silenced. Edward Heath asked in 1972 for Enoch Powell the political whistlebower to be killed off for exposing and criticising British immigration policy. Edward Heath hated him and never spoke to him again.
Mass uncontrolled Immigration posed a bigger threat to British culture and way of life than WWII
and Shared Britain gave way to Multicuralism which was then called Blue Sky Thinking which then became the Big Family.
Dr Andrew Wakefield who exposed government lies over the safety of vaccinations was hounded from office by drug company pressure but now looks more and more that he was correct.
Now that the remit for the police has been changed from serving the public, to servants of the State we may well see more Jean Charles De Menezes type killings. Changes in rulings about people who disagree with government policy to be classed as “Domestic terrorists ” puts every single person in the frame, means as the people wake to the lies and crimes of government lies and crimes, thier agencies cannot be trusted.
To Wit:
“To ensure future generations are protected and to be ready for the possibility of another pandemic, Congress needs to assess what worked and what did not.”
Oh yes… big government who rolled out the democide via a theatrical production stage managed by the DOD need to be ready for the next injectable cull of the useless eaters.. because they haven’t got the ‘numbers’ they had hoped for (plenty of time yet..tick tock)…. and people are becoming..ahem vaccine hesitant..
The unterwebz are livid with these types of articles and substack scribes cataloguing the ‘horrors’…but of course they are very short on solutions… and long on zoom meetings…
Apparently they are all making money…and a good proportion actually working for the regime…
…just like they did before only covertly now..their job is to terrify you and engender a sense of hopelessness….to offer hope and snatch it away…
and then deny it all via the MSM…it’s a tag team op’ to gaslight imbeciles…
one that can only be settled with a very short trial (like pfisores) and stout piece of rope….
Now you know why its called the ‘Shipman shot’.
The safe and effective ‘shot’ in no way can be blamed so forget it!
Why are there so many excess deaths in the 24-44 age group?
Take a look at all the “migration” happening.
Most of those are in the same age range.
Total coincidence, of course.
Yukon Jack — you wrote “useless eaters on Social Security – who pay no tax…”. Social Security benefits are income, according to the Feds, and recipients pay Fed income tax on them. Some states tax them, also.
Mr. Celine– My shot has saved millions of lives!!! You anti-semitic monster!!
to the enjoyment of Rothschild, Rockefeller, Soros,
Fauci, A Bourla, Bill Gates, Satanjahu, Biden, Trump,
B´naiB´rit + their freemason servants + all jew
billionary globalists .
Yukon Jack may yet find himself classified as dead weight along with the rest of us. Will you continue to occupy your high horse, Yukon? Lots of unfounded arrogance being expressed around here!
BoilerPlate: Your point is well taken. In addition, you might also add that the American social-security system is SELF-FUNDED…by the future recipients themselves and by their employers, if they have an employer. If self-employed, they fund it themselves entirely. Yukon Jack running off at the mouth again….
Despite old and young dying, I believe it is the older people who are targeted, with the young being “collateral damage”…
Touched upon by a couple of posters, the idea that world population is being managed — essentially first world — rather than levelled down across the planet — is something I think that makes sense. Although to a first approximation, it is “Whiteocide” as some here have called it, it seems to be more about removing those who have built up pensions entitlements and health needs. Another poster mentions the “Liverpool Care Pathway”. This seems to have been born of the same establishment desire to not “waste resources” on worker bees that are of longer use.
The idea of simply killing people all over the world without reason doesn’t make sense to me. If people “are to be killed”, then TPTB are indeed psychopaths, but I do not believe they engage in “senseless killings” – there is a difference. After all, farmers only send their old horses to the knackers yard, they don’t send the younger ones there.
TPTB make a big show of “trying to get the third world much needed vaccines”, but IMO that is a just a pretence. The third world is the factory churning out new drones for importation as slave labourers.
Interesting graphic here:
https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/vaccines/international
More dead older people means higher corporate profits. The conveyor belt of third world immigration means the new labour will be “glad” to have arrived by dingy rather than question their slave wages – wages that are nevertheless higher than in their home nations. And once again, the fragmentation of the working class necessarily born of such a diversity of people mitigates against successive collective bargaining for wages.
The antipathy that the indigenous and the newcomers may indulge in, and encouraged by the Mail and state controlled safety valves, is not to the advantage of the drones of any race. TPTB make an outer show of wanting “racial harmony”, but I believe the promotion of LGBT and BLM is to keep the working classes divided by pissing off White people. The whole business of mixed race couple in adverts is to piss White people off.
Ask yourself this question: Who REALLY benefits between the lack of worker solidarity between ethnic groups? I do not think TPTB think primarily in terms of race like many of us; they think in terms of “control”. The management of the ethnic fault lines is part of this control mechanism, but not the bottom line. The bottom line is literally control. The outrage generated by an immigrant stabbing an indigenous person is a dramatic but of outlying significance. Jabs kill more people than knives.
Anyone remember the film “Logan’s Run” , where people who had reached thirty years old had to kill themselves – but it wasn’t called that…
“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” Mark Twain
And the illegal alien invader illiterate criminal scumbags invading America and Europe don’t and don’t have to take the jab, so they will live longer to parasite off of the white population. What will they do when all of the whites are dead? They are not smart enough to maintain a first world country.
MASS DEATH of white US citizens by
black racewar on whites ,
Fentanil+drug abuse,
jewish covid euthanasy,
abortion help by jewish doctors,
unemployment+ homelessness,
traffic accidents
Never before the bankrupcy of democracy has been better exposed / yet people keep voting…

@ Yukon jack…
As a SS recipient I paid over a half million in SS taxes. Others have as well. Are we supposed to forgo the payoff. Most die earlier and never receive all they paid in.
And worse,,, many bad mouth SS but sit idly by while illegals receive a $5000 check when entering the US and another $2000 per month. 9 million this year alone. Do you want to calculate that on your calculator? How many of those do you think have paid any type of US tax….. Zero.
How about the welfare,,, free housing,,, food stamps,,, aid to dependent children and on and on while most never paid a dime in SS or taxes Federal, State or local.
Then we have the wars. 100-150 billion to Ukraine so far,,, who knows what’s going to Israel but Israel being one of the richest nations receives the most Foreign Aid from the US – ~ 3 billion per year.
You want to save money? Stop paying for wars,,, bring the military home,,, take care of US borders and stop trying to play Caesar to the world and stop trying to kill off old people for fedbucks. The Covid shots are doing that pretty well.
