All the resources I’ve found on COVID consciousness through this comm are in English and aimed at people living in Seppoland (USA). Especially now that the Norwegian Institute of Public Health reported about a month ago that “fatality has returned to pre-pandemic levels for all age groups”, I’m worried that people in Norway will just brush off COVID consciousness as a “Yankee thing” with no place in this country. What to do?


Alle resursene jeg har funnet gjennom denne gruppen er på engelsk og egentlig for folk som bor i Seppeland (USA). Spesielt nå at FHI sa for én måned siden at “dødeligheten er tilbake til nivået før pandemien for alle aldersgrupper”, frykter jeg at folk i Norge vil rett og slett si at koronabevissthet er bare en “USA-greie” som har ingen plass her til lands. Hva skal jeg gjøre?

    Sorry I don’t pretend to know anything about Norway.

    A quick and dirty Google search shows that excess mortality is up in 2024. (You gotta download the spreadsheet to see the data).

    I can’t speak for Norway, but I can speak in general. Countries like to include the last 5 years in their excess deaths calculation, so actually less people died in 2025 rather than 2020 so we’re getting better. Also hospitals rarely test for COVID.

    Like anywhere, COVID will disproportionally affect the poor and disabled, so liberals can pretend that it doesn’t exist.
