Using the preliminary numbers from the deadorkicking website, I calculated that there has been excess mortality in the US working age population of about 137,500 people in 2021--and this number is likely to increase.

The 2021 comparison was with 2020 to generate the 137,500 figure, but it really should be compared with the first pre-pandemic year, 2019, because 2020 was a multiple sigma outlier, whereas 2019 was within the normal range.
