This website is written by room-temp IQ writers that know their room-temp IQ audience will click and share the bait. No government would admit to what this headline claims because they'd all be hanging in the gallows. What is true is that the UK and countries like the US are reporting ***ALL-CAUSE MORTALITY*** (see the link below). If you look at the last 14 weeks of the year over last 5 years, 2021 has the most deaths by a comfortable lead (**2017**: 162,931 deaths, **2020**: 179,210, **2021**: 181,131). At the very least you can say that vaccines, lockdowns, and extra safety measures have done absolutely nothing according to their own numbers. Now I'm not convinced that a gov't statistician isn't looking at these numbers and reporting it to their bosses who turn around and tell them to fudge the numbers but there's no smoking gun on that level, yet.
