Original Note:
The post and headline imply that a "Record number of deaths" are largely due to "NHS strikes", but no evidence of a link is provided. The analysis is not age-standardised, which means it doesn't allow for an ageing population. Most of the excess occurred early in 2023. https://twitter.com/ActuaryByDay/status/1742151383543869929
