9. Irish Central Statistics Office: Vital Statistics

I’m just making some different points than the article does (one of the CSO links doesn’t work).

They only have the first and second quarters of 2020 so far.

They have side-by-side charts for comparing Q1 2020 with Q1 2019
and for comparing Q2 2020 with Q2 2019

I think this Irish government site wants readers to relate the deaths for these quarters of 2020 to COVID:

Total Deaths in Q1 2020 are 8,674 (Q1 2019 8,618)
Total Deaths in Q2 2020 are 8,582 (Q1 2019 7,519)

The number of deaths in each quarter going back to 1960 are available here.

From 2011:

Trying to look at it objectively, there are years that have a similar number of deaths as 2020 Q1 (8,674) and this seems to be a pattern across the years (higher number for Q1), but the number of deaths reported for 2020 Q2 (8,582) does seem like a spike in deaths to me. It seems higher than for other Q2 periods in past years.

My first explanation–guess–for this, assuming the policies in Ireland in 2020 match what I know about Canadian policies, is that the elderly were denied health care, they were considered less valuable and they were crammed into long term care homes and many were denied hospital care. This is what happened in Ontario and other Canadian and international jurisdictions (US, UK, Canada at least). Many were told there was no treatment for their condition (if diagnosed with “covid”). Some were put on respirators instead. Many more than usual died early of neglect in care homes.

So I think this likely accounts for the spike in deaths in Ireland in that quarter if these numbers are accurate. Others would just assume they died of COVID-19 (you can see the official COVID-19 deaths statistics also), but I say some of them died early of COVID-19 policies regardless of the official cause of death being accurate or not.

I want to emphasize my personal observations from media reports. I recommend people think for themselves–this is very important to do when there is a lot of deception.

First, when COVID began, the first thing I remember was that governments announced that elderly patients had less value and they were going to be treated differently. These are explicit life-boat ethics policies–Canada, Ontario, US, UK. I don’t know if they were formally imposed in Ireland or not.

Second, crediting research by Denis Rancourt, Rosemary Frei and Jon Rappoport, it is clearly documented that the elderly in Canada–based on these policies–were denied access to hospitals–many of them. They were directed out of the hospitals and sent to care homes, where they were subject to extreme isolation procedures (as everyone knows but people are conflicted about them) and subsequent resulting NEGLECT.

I posted the policy documents and some of these mainstream news stories here and you can find the others in my other posts.

I don’t believe that the anti-elderly death panels policy is a minor part of the COVID scandal. It is a front-and-centre aspect of COVID. It was early-on announced by the media. It went past people and flew over their heads because people were focused on the media story about an alleged “pandemic.” People in Canada and other countries have passively accepted relatively recent euthanasia policies (officially introduced in Canada) and these COVID triage/death panel policies were an expansion of euthanasia.

They did not die under typical influenza conditions as with other years. Yes, of course old age and comorbidities are a factor–there are deaths every year. But there were more excess deaths than there would have been otherwise because they were isolated, neglected and refused proper treatment–because of distorted information about treatments. They were sent out of hospitals (believe it or not) and refused access to hospitals. On top of that, there was a systematic denial that there was any effective treatment for COVID! Doctors were restrained from using treatments that were considered normal in the past.

So, yes, there would have been “flu” deaths as with previous years (numbers similar to “COVID” deaths) but in 2020 there was a very unusual situation of excess deaths due to these policies. I’m not talking about the official cause of death being COVID or not–that is another subject. More died than should have died. And the fear of COVID was exaggerated and hyped in the media, yes, but some terrible policies of neglect were carried out openly, and yet disguised through propaganda. The focus was on one thing but it was actually another thing that was going on–like in a “shell game.” And people of all ages also died because of the lockdowns and because of cancellation of surgeries. And the excuse given for these policies was that there was an “emergency.”

I put some links together here about the Canadian situation to give an overview.

The pandemic story was told in order to justify POLICY CHANGES–to change our whole system and view of human life and our role in this world (“essential” vs. “non-essential”). And it is consistent with policies that have already been introduced in recent years and over the last decade.

Note that the author also refers to Irish monthly death statistics for 2020 that are available (but preliminary) which seem to originate via RIP.ie and the General Register Office.

The article’s point is that the total number of deaths for 2020 in Ireland, based on these numbers (if they’re accurate) is lower than 2019–even though there was a pandemic declared.

I’ve just listed 2020 and 2019:
2020 2019
Jan 2946 3041
Feb 2676 2603
Mar 2868 2672
Apr 3523 2502
May 2555 2651
Jun 2101 2388
Jul 2066 2321
Aug 2146 2314
Sep 2156 2411
Oct 2331 2581
Nov 1970 2679
Dec 1657 3060

Just doing a quick calculation (hopefully I added the numbers correctly)
For 2020, the total is 28,995.
For 2019, the total is 31,223.

That’s clear enough, and note how most months of 2020 have a lower number of deaths compared to the previous year (despite there being a “pandemic”).

But I notice the large number for April 2020 (3523), which raises the number of second quarter deaths and which is consistent with an excess number of deaths occurring due to COVID policies (or as others would think, due to COVID) in April 2020.

I think people should watch out for this happening again for the winter and spring months of 2021.
