Okay I'm not shilling for the corunga... more so I'm asking, how the hell does the CDC get conflicting data... with itself!

This graph shows the excess mortality over the last couple of years, showing 2020 having a lot of excess death.

the first thing worth noting is the lack of a quantified y axis

cdc's information on this stuff is only a couple weeks behind. why are you posting something from april? based on your chart, i see about 40k more deaths than average. thats well within tolerances for not destroying the economy and all small businesses in the USA

... The original picture that was the OP is the same data for later, i just provided a Y axis from with this picture from april (I'm not making these charts, I'm just finding them, and I was saying I can't find the perfect graph)

I'm also not saying this data is correct or defending anything, I'm complaining about CDC's confusing inconsistencies (IE how can their deaths be lower than previous years but have their excess mortality higher)
