I heard on the news that Life Insurance companies are concerned about the rising death rate for the 18 to 64 year olds. The death rate has risen to 40%. This is very eye opening. IMHO, I think the covid lock downs hurt many people.

Concerned that they are paying out more?  Risen from when?  I would need more info on their "statistics."

That "information" is from Dr. Mercola.    (Do your research).

from google:

The head of Indianapolis-based insurance company OneAmerica said the death rate is up a stunning 40% from pre-pandemic levels among working-age people.

I heard something similar on last nights news. Did your source list any "cause of deaths" in that expansive age group?

Dr. Robert Malone has written an article about the cause.

It's hard to find an article written by him. I know who he is and the why of this absence.

Insurance companies concerned about the rise in a death rate???? What a joke!

Their concern is increase in death benefit payouts and loss of premiums.

Insurance is a necessary evil with a lot of power.

My opinion of course.

I know 2 in that very group- one last fall and one three weeks ago.  Both from Covid.

[Kachina624]

Is someone claiming 40% of the people in that age range have died?  I find that hard to believe.  That's almost half the population.  In the entire US only 900,000 of all ages have died of Covid which is a tiny fraction.
