U.S. Population in millions
2016 = 323.1
2017 = 325.1
2018 = 327.2
2019 = 328.2
2020 = 332.7
2021 (projected) = 331.4
We were told that the winter of 2019 and the full year of 2020 were the
worst for Covid deaths. Half a million, all Trump’s fault. Yet U.S.
population grew by 4.5 million, from 2019 to 2020.
My mother
caught the Covid in April 2020, beat it, and we have a picture of her
tooling around in her walker at her assisted living home on Memorial
Day, May 30, 2020. She subsequently received the vaccinations early
this year. She passed away in April, 2021 at age 99 due to a series of
strokes. The strokes affected her motor skills but right up until the
end she knew all of us and could weakly say "I love youâ€. A good long
life. She outlived all of her contemporaries.
Tim adds:
A House report showed Covid deaths remain inflated in the official numbers. By how much is anyone's guess. See also here
(Hat tip; Chester McAteer for the links.)
That said, it frightens me that the population rose almost nine million in four
years. The U.S. is already the third most populous country on Earth,
and our population keeps rising not because Americans are fertile but
because we let anyone in who can crawl up to the border. This stat no
doubt doesn't take illegals who are in hiding into account either. How
long can we maintain our country if we are being invaded and overtaken
by aliens with no cultural ties to America?

But it's dropping by 1.3 million this year. There were only 586,000 Covid deaths, some of which would have died regardless, so what happened to cause the population to shrink by 800,000 or so not counting Covid? Looks to me like our government can't even count any more.

Therein lies the problem Bill. I noticed that too. They are assuming a big loss in population from Covid this year. Very strange, no?

If you've had the COVID, and beat it, the WORST DAMN FOOL THING you can do is get vaccinated. Why would anybody do it unless pressured by some other damn fool? Yet the government is going to push it with the idea of these stupid "passports" that say you've been vaccinated. Why not other passports that say I've Survived COVID?

Amen Dana. It's proof of principle if nothing else; if they can make us get these "passports" then they can make us carry papers whenever they please. Gone is anonymity, the cornerstone of a free society (well, one of them anyway.)
