Well this data proves the 82 number wrong. If you run the math, the highest possible number would be 80. The most likely number, according to this data? 76.
This is assuming the data is up to date (it’s not, by over 50k deaths) and that Heritage is reporting accurate info (iffy, since there’s a disclaimer at the bottom that reads “Not included is a value between 1 and 9 that has been suppressed by the CDC in accordance with NCHS confidentiality standards.” and Heritage isn’t exactly known for accuracy in their analysis).
I’m continually baffled by how this is a political issue. We’re now losing almost as many people as we did on 9/11 EVERY DAY. Stay at home if you can, and if you can’t, wear a go***mn mask.
