I think the number of excess deaths required before people notice would be dependent on the age groups and to what the deaths are attributed. With children or teenagers, it would be much more noticeable, especially if the deaths occur from disease that does not normally affect this group.

"how many deaths would there need to be in a given week for most people to even get an inkling that there is something wrong going on?"

Unless the deaths touch individual's lives, millions can die and few but the data trackers would notice. How many unexpected deaths within a community or circle of friends before it is undeniable that they are related to the same product?

Issues matter most when they're personal and folks have skin in the game. My guess is the miscarriages and fertility issues will burst this bubble because women talk to each other constantly about all our women things & when it comes to planning & expecting babies our entire world knows all the hopes and heartbreaks. Add that to school kids dead and injured, it can't be much longer.
