Uk exess mortality is already at 35 000, quite close to the "successfull suppression" plan that put the death toll at 40 000.
"First, note that ~60k is how many people died and tested positive AND were coded as COVID-19. It's not necessairly how many people died because of a COVID-19 infection. We will not know the real #'s until all-cause death is examined. There appears to be a significant drop in "normal" pneumonia deaths for example. It also ignores the error bars on the testing false/positive/negative rates."
Do you have a website like euromomo for excess mortality in the US? Covid19 causes arrhythmia in 7% of cases, even very mild ones [0] and arrhythmia is the main cause of sudden death for people over 40 years old (i have ectopic heartbeat so i'm a bit concerned with this)
