Indiana life insurance CEO says deaths are up 40% among people ages 18-64

14. Interesting. I wonder if stats (more accurate) could be gleamed from sales of ...

cemetery plots, caskets, profit and loss statements of funeral services, flowers, etc. and of course insurance payouts (this is just from one insurance company). I imagine that the insurance industry probably has more things in place to track these deaths, so as to better forecast anticipated death rates (to predict actuary rates etc.). I suggest this since a lot of republican states have resorted to sugar coating actual death stats or not reporting them, etc.

There is an interesting science that I'm aware of, to predict the spread of COVID, they sample the waste treatment plants in MO for the prevalence of COVID etc., to determine how widespread COVID is. Perhaps there is a science too now that based upon COVID numbers in a region, that anticipated death rates would be ABC.

Then of course extrapolate that to the entire Country, to get a far better picture / scope of COVID deaths. This stats by republican dictate must stop if we're ever to stop this COVID virus spread in its tracks. Anyone enabling the distortion of the spread of this disease must be charged w/ a federal crime. Otherwise, how will we ever stop this disease in its tracks from spreading from one state that does absolutely nothing for COVID, vs. others that do everything?
