Both the UK and Israel have had record heatwaves this past summer, but the deaths are caused "by the vaccine"; But other countries, without heatwaves and heavy vaccine penetration, like the US, Australia, or Japan are just lying and don't have accurate data?
Is it that high heat causes the nano-particles in the vaccine to turn on the host?
"It added the 16% rate was 'an unusually high value' for a July month. The bloc had 3% excess mortality in the same period in 2020, the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, and 6% in 2021."
Am I reading correctly that this implies, at least for the month of July, that heat killed more people than the pandemic?
Yes, but it is an unfortunate selection of data, as excess death due to Covid in the EU mostly happened in two waves, non of which extended to July. But I don't want to downplay the impact of heat waves, they death spike associated with them is interesting, and underappreciated by the public.
Yes, basically. It is far more contagious than flu. Even assuming it is 'just the flu' in terms of impact of a single bout on an individual (and there is plenty of evidence it is much worse than the flu), the fact that it spreads so easily and can re-infect so readily makes it a very serious public health issue.
In a massice 2015 Lancet study of temperature related fatalities worldwide, they found 17 times more fatalities due to cold than heat. Even in tropical countries there were more people dying due to cold-related issues. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...
Yes. There were thousands of directly heat related deaths. You're welcome to look up all the disparate sources rather than concern trolling.
The article is about the 53,000 excess deaths which would imply there was either an undetected major disaster centered around the hotter regions of europe during a record heatwave, or that it's worth investigating what the causal links were.
At no point is it reasonable to try gaslighting people into somehow thinking it was cold as an anti-eu and anti-science dog whistle.

The article says "thousands", which makes it difficult to determine how many of the reported excess deaths were due to the heat.
That's what excess deaths means.
It is, and so are you. From TFA:
led to thousands of heat-related deaths across Europe
So asking how many thousands seems like a reasonable question.
