I was just checking the CDC's "death from all causes" data set and ran across something very interesting. They have a category for "Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R99)" and normally, this averages around 678 deaths per week. Lately, it's averaging around 2,000 deaths per week and it's climbing. It's not Covid because they have a category for that. I wonder what it could be? It exceeds Covid deaths now, by the way.

This is very troubling.

I suspect it includes many who succumbed to covid, but never had any testing performed. Unless that category specifically excludes this.

The category exists prior to Covid. The number was stable up until the last week in November 2020. I don't know what is causing it to increase. The overall deaths by all causes is not rising so maybe it's just a problem with identifying the correct cause of death. I'm going to check it again in a few months to see if the prior month's numbers are assigned to other categories as we go forward in time.
 
Man the videos are horrible. Entire city blocks collapsed. A small tsunami appears to have also hit the island. Only video is of a foot or so in the street but one report said a possible 9 foot wave in a port town somewhere along the south coast.
 
Gonna be a lot of dead in Haiti, maybe not the staggering 160k killed in 2010 though as this one was 100 miles or so west of the 2010 one that directly hit the capital city etc but images so far are really bad in the effected area.
