I'd say the economic downturn, easing of COVID restrictions/ remote work and other factors (like higher fuel prices, increased stress, etc) are all likely contributors to a higher death rate now compared to the death rate since 2020. Strange how their chart doesn't pick a start date before the pandemic to establish a pre-pandemic baseline.
