One of the prefixes is N17, which means “Acute renal failure,” often written as “acute kidney injury, or AKI, on death records. This means sudden kidney failure.
The graph depicted in Figure 1 represents 8,431 excess deaths from 2020 through 2023 involving N17 ARF/AKI alone across all three states. An overly conservative calculation using AVERAGE method yields 7,626 excess deaths.
All that black in the graph is DEATH. There is a 100% increase in DEATHS across all three states and, as Phinance Technologies shows here, across the United States also.
Since when do we NOT investigate an excess 155K deaths across the U.S. from a single cause? Why are public health agencies not all over this? Why does the public just shrug and move on?
