A leading expert has appeared on national television to warn the American people about the “staggering” numbers of excess deaths that are being recorded across the country.
Dr. Pierre Kory, Chief Medical Officer of the Frontline COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, raised the alarm during an appearance on Laura Ingraham’s Fox News show.
The critical care physician explained why insurance actuaries are showing a “staggering” spike in excess deaths.

Horrifying... Dr. Pierre Kory and Laura Ingraham discussing what's behind the decline in life expectancy, FDA saying that life expectancy decline is "catastrophic", new study finding alarming rise in cancer rates among people under 50, 158000 more unexpected U.S deaths than during same period 2019 : The timing is really inarguable. I mean we have to answer the question, why are the healthiest elements of society, these are young, employed folks with life insurance suddenly started dying at rates we've never seen before in 2021 and it continues... I don't see an organized effort to try and answer the question why young people are dying so much... We've never seen dying at this rate, I mean unless we send all our young people to war, you can't explain why so many young people are dying....VAERS has exploded since the outset of the campaign, why are we not asking questions . All we've seen our government do and these agencies is to ignore it and dismiss it....
We are facing extraordinary headwinds in our public health with a major decline in life expectancy. The major decline in the U.S. is not just a trend. I’d describe it as catastrophic.
