Deaths up 15% on September 2020

RIPcounties.ie counted 2870 death notices for September 2024. This is 15% more than the 2493 in September 2020.

Ah, 2020! The year…

… of the supposedly deadly new virus to which no one had immunity and for which there was, as yet, no miracle transfections to save humanity and…

… when politicians, medics and media never stopped worrying about the numbers dying.

Why are they silent now?

How did September affect your county?

Ava’s Story

Ava O’Brien’s all-too-short life ended on 17th September 2022.

Shortly after her first anniversary, Philip Dwyer recorded an interview with her father, Martin.

The resulting video serves not only as tribute to Ava but also a warning to other parents and a historical record of some of what we were put through.

Excess Deaths

The topic of excess deaths was mentioned during their conversation.

This graph of death notices on RIP.ie1Duplicate and foreign deaths removed. begins with January 2021 and compares:

  • the actual number of notices in a month (blue line)
  • with that months pre-pandemic 5-year average (light green line)

The green shaded area highlights the gap between the two. The red line tracks the accumulating number of deaths above that 5-year average.

Irish Central Statistics Office did not project this amount of death

“… a mortality projection produced by the CSO immediately after the 2016 census when they would have had the exact up to date age and sex profile of the population and relevant actuarial data…

The 2021 to 2023 figures (in red) are rounded estimates based on rip.ie figures as per Irelandexcessdeaths.com …

As you can see, the CSO pretty much nailed it for 2017 to 2020 (Scamdemic Year) but then things go horribly off kilter from 2021 onwards.

2021 just happens to be year the Covid 19 mRNA vaccines were rolled out…

Tipp Today: Patrick E Walsh debunks that OECD report and the forthcoming ‘Official Ireland’ Covid ‘review’

In his interview Patrick mentions some links. He has provided them on his Substack.

There’s red flags and questions


Did the report use the most appropriate figures to base calculations on?

Is the hyping of the report preparing the public for what the official COVID review is going to find?

Are the three years 2020, 2021 and 2022 being lumped together to disguise the facts that

  • 2020 saw just some hundreds of more deaths than 2019 (but politicians, experts, TV, radio and newspapers gave the opposite impression)
  • 2021 saw c 3,000 more deaths than 2020 (but politicians, experts, TV, radio and newspapers did not highlight that)
  • 2022 saw even more deaths again than 2021 (but politicians, experts, TV, radio and newspapers again, did not highlight)…
