.@19Documenting recently released a GitHub data repository that provides county-level CDC mortality data from 2020 and 2021. We're hoping other reporters will use it to investigate deaths during the pandemic in their regions. coviddatadispatch.com/2022/0…
What are “excess deaths”? They are the number of more people who have died in a given period compared to the historical trend.
We’ve put together a data repository of cause of death data for all 3,006 counties in the U.S. to help you investigate: bit.ly/3DBEvOt
@19Documenting and @MuckRock are publishing a new data repository to help you investigate whether COVID deaths have been underreported in your county or state.
Check out the new tools and data here: 🔧🔬 bit.ly/3DBEvOt
As of last week, 158,212 more Americans have died during the pandemic from causes that, according to @CDCgov “could represent misclassified COVID-19 deaths.”
We want to help you investigate in your community 🔍

An analysis shows since the first COVID death in 2020, Cook County has seen thousands of deaths beyond what would be expected — the equivalent of a plane crash every two weeks — and it’s not all from the virus.
