DuPage County (IL) vs Bergamo Province (Italy): Daily Deaths, Oct 2017- May 2022
Spreadsheet pandemic
The title of this post speaks for itself.
I live in DuPage County, Illinois.
I (co)investigate the spring 2020 mass casualty event in Bergamo Province, Italy.
Bergamo has more residents (~1.1M vs 935K); DuPage is more population-dense.
Both locations report 80%+ uptake for the initial round of COVID shots.
DuPage County death records are available through public records requests, and the county medical examiner is an elected official. To my knowledge, this is not the case in Bergamo.
Readers can Google other details about each jurisdiction.

Yes, We Believe the Bergamo (Italy) All-Cause Death Curve is Fraudulent
A few people have made us aware that a German analyst named Tom Lausen is saying he believes the spring 2020 Bergamo (Italy) death spike is “faked” (see the thread here). This is akin to, but not exactly the same as, what we have both asserted about New York City curves — and now suspect of other locations, including Bergamo.
Chicago's Fall 2020 Deaths Peaked Prior to COVID Shot Deployment
Looking at data for daily deaths among Chicago residents this morning, I noticed something I had not noticed previously: The rise in autumn of 2020 peaked prior to the COVID shot being deployed.
