- alcohol consumption in recorded history
- inflation since 2020

I find it interesting that the mass shootings one has been mostly buried (and many on the left outwardly celebrated the literal school shooting of Charlie Kirk).

The road fatalities one has been weird for year - why did it spike during covid?

Almost all social pathologies spiked during the Covid era and started coming down around mid-late 2023, through 2024 and continue to fall in 2025

Teen girls have fewer pregnancies now because more of them are fat as pigs. Even the cheerleaders are overweight.

As someone who was able to work during the covid days and travelled a good bit, there were very few cars on the roads and the ones that were, were hauling arse.

At least in the Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana area.

Edit to say....I sure do miss the covid roads.

In the light of the study you just posted, I would say drug overdose deaths, road fatalities and suicide death reduction rates would also be affected by medical advances.

Liberals were in a hurry to see who could get jabbed the quickest and other liberals were in a real big hurry for their next jab(s).
