  Source code and data for The Economist's covid-19 excess deaths tracker

  

You can compare the approximate number of excess deaths from all causes vs. reported covid deaths for many countries. For example, in the US, from Jan. 26 2020 until Feb. 27 2021, there were in total 550-660 thousand excess deaths, of which 75%–88% were attributed directly to COVID source. Aus. and New Zealand had 0 or negative excess deaths (among working-age men), consistent with few COVID deaths and fewer than typical deaths in car and work accidents source. The Economist magazine is one news source tracking the phenominon more broadly, though note that "excess deaths" are inherently imprecise and the quality of data varies by country: https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/coronavirus-excess-deaths-tracker
