@Antonio_Caramia DK excess death going down a lot now. Expect similar trends elsewhere.

@Antonio_Caramia The great benefits of the Swedish approach to #COVID19 . #CovidIsNotOver

@Antonio_Caramia #excessdeaths #Switzerland

@Antonio_Caramia @Mina79765999 Komisch, dabei hatten doch fast alle höhere Impfquoten als wir. Oh, wait!

@Antonio_Caramia Yeah freedom! as we (the FDP - the liberal Party in Germany) proclaim in doitscheland

@Antonio_Caramia We Germans need to fix our Rentensystem first bevor we fix the excess mortality, I guess. 🤷

@Antonio_Caramia Are we that unhealthy or too old population?

@Antonio_Caramia For Germany, the influenza wave peaked in December, so that should explain most of it. After there was no Influenza for two years, this year's wave was stronger. Not unusual.

@Antonio_Caramia I wish there were numbers given for Sweden and Italy. Might be even >+37%.
