Thanks Clare. I was worried the first image might alarm people.

My friend Father Dave reminds me of the quote: "every complex problem has a simple answer, and it’s always the wrong answer."

Dear Adrian, The institute of Actuaries of Australia have changed their baseline for counting excess deaths in 2024 see https://www.actuaries.digital/2024/08/13/mortality-in-first-four-months-2024-in-line-with-prediction/ Mortality is only in line with prediction because the comparison is with 2023 !?!?!

Hello Dave, If you get a chance could you post the link to Senator Rennick's facebook post?

Those anecdotes are just as important as peer reviewed papers I think.
