For those who suspect that the observed excess mortality is caused by vaccinations: even in the age category 0-14 years, the year 2021 predominates, albeit much less deviating than in the older groups. These young people have hardly been vaccinated, so that cannot be the cause. Could it be the effect of fear, restriction of freedom, punishment, warnings, threats, home situations and the feeling that you are a danger to others? Outdated immune systems, underserved care? And why is the difference in the older age groups so much greater in relative terms? Unemployment, loneliness, loss of control over your own life?
Ik krijg steeds meer het gevoel dat de oorzaak simpelweg in "de maatregelen" ligt, inclusief alles: lockdowns, vaccinaties, social distancing... Kun je eigenlijk wel draconisch ingrijpen in alle lagen van een samenleving zonder schade aan te richten? Zo niet, dan zien we nu misschien hoe die schade eruit ziet.
Society functions the way it functions for a reason. This is a continuous organic development. Certainly, that requires adjustment, damping, guidance. But stomping through it with muddy boots doesn't do any good. As has also been predicted in the areas of public health, economics, culture and education, to name just a few sectors. I hope for a more reserved attitude and regular (re)evaluation next time.
This is based on the European excess mortality in weeks 20-33 as shown on https://www.euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps#excess-mortality Note the scale of the various Y axes. For 0-14 years it increases to 200, for 65-74 years it increases to 6000.
Light blue = 2021.

That was a lot of death in recent days. High time for a lighter subject! Ventilation?
