Year 2019: 2,855,000 deaths (16,300 more than the previous year 2018)

The year of the pandemic ...

Year 2020: 2,913,144 deaths (57,641 more than the previous year 2019)

BUT WAIT: There were zero deaths from Covid-19 during 2018, and 2019
and the jump from 2019 was only 57,641 ???

I've been told that COVID is responsible now for 400,000 + deaths.
Shouldn't the 2020 number be alot higher?

So the question becomes: How many people died of COVID and How many really only
died (of other causes) WITH COVID?
The number for 2020 IS a lot higher. It is actually 3,401,600 or a jump of 546,600 from the 2019 count. My information came from the CDC. I'll ask again, where did your data come from? (maybe the fourth time is the charm)

546,600 more deaths in 2020 than in previous years. You can try to differentiate "FROM" covid and "WITH" covid but you still have 546,600 additional deaths because of covid.
