So you quote an eight-month figure, ignoring the nearly-nine months since then, and still cling to your narrative even when presented with facts that directly contradict your earlier assertions. Okay.
Try some math: 360,000 deaths higher than average over 251 days is 1434 excess deaths per day. From Oct 4 through yesterday is another 296 days, and 1434x296=424,464, so we're talking about a scale of around 780,000, which very much supports the total US COVID death count of 627,370.
If you think that's all 80-year-olds with multiple pre-existing conditions, and that you therefore have nothing to worry about, then I hope for your sake and the sake of those around you that you aren't proven wrong by an ICU stay.
