ADDED ON SEPTEMBER 19, 2024

The below data compares corruption perception index with median age and COVID deaths. As age happens to be one of the major factors in COVID deaths, that variable has been included in this table. In addition, this table includes Countries supposedly with lower Corruption Perception Index (CPI). . The objective of this table is to identify any connection between CPI, COVID deaths, and median age. As can be seen from the table, though US has a lower median age than many other countries in this list, it had the most COVID deaths per million. It also happens to be on the higher side of CPI among more "developed" nations. For that matter, countries such as Belgium took a conservative route, and counted any questionable death that lacked complete information as COVID death. Whereas, as shared above, reports from Boston University and other articles suggest that the COVID deaths stated in the US could be an underestimation of the total COVID deaths.

What is data telling us about number of Federal and State level Politicians, who died during the peak of the COVID pandemic?

How does it stack up to what the theoretical value should have been?

LET US SEE HOW MANY POLITICIANS AT STATE & FEDERAL LEVEL REALLY DIED (OCTOBER 27, 2024)

As of today, there have been close to 1.22 million COVID deaths in the US out of 334.8 million, and around 111.8 million cases, which is almost 1/3rd of the total population.
As of November 11, 2022, there were around 96.8 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 with over one million deaths, which implies that majority of the officially registered COVID deaths happened during that time period. Please note that the median age of the entire population is significantly lesser than the median/mean age for the politicians at the Federal and State levels as shared above.
If that were the case, and if there were to be 19300 politicians, around 60 politicians should have died then, even if we were to consider the entire population. However, the mean age for politicians at the Congress is around 59 years or more, and though the state level might be lesser, still the mean age should be well above 50. If we were to take this age group, around 93% of all COVID deaths have come from ages 50 and above, and it amounts to close to 1% of this demographics. Going by the age profile of the politicians at the mentioned levels, we should have seen around 170-180 COVID deaths and around 5600 positive COVID cases by fitting data until Nov 11, 2002. If that were the case, what was the reality?

UPDATED ON OCTOBER 29, 2024

Please note that this work is not to dilute the impact of COVID, and the health issues that many are facing even now. For that matter, if we were to present our own personal experience here, our founder officially had COVID twice. After the first positive test, our founder lost his smell for an extended period of time with lingering side effects not only from the COVID, but also from the vaccine afterwards. After the second time, our founder had unusual side effects with some of the side effects still being present.

In addition, there were other challenges that came with this pandemic namely long COVID, questions of efficacy, effectiveness and side effects coming from the new type of vaccine, issues with COVID test results, spread of false information, fake certificates, frauds and more.

Though the above-mentioned challenges certainly aggravated the situation, COVID data presented in this work strongly supports the fact that the spread and impact of COVID could have been altered and/or tempered to a greater extent with quality health care, better planning and improved accessibility.
