For every two deaths caused by Covid-19 in the U.S., another American dies from pandemic related causes, according to a new study.
Using mortality data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from 2014 to 2020 the authors were able to predict the expected deaths for 2020.
However, the study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that deaths between March and August increased by 20% compared to previous years.
