Nearly 3,000 more Britons are dying than average on a weekly basis, and it’s not Covid-19 that’s responsible.

Troubled by national statistics showing 20% excess deaths per week, UK MPs have demanded an investigation, the Daily Mail reported on Tuesday. Unlike the last time excess deaths reached such levels, during the second Covid-19 wave, few of these deaths could be attributed to the virus.
