+# This turns the CDC mortality data[0] into a format useful for my
+# excess mortality spreadsheet. The US format is by far the worst one
+# I have dealt with, as expected.
+#
+# This requires miller for transforming the CSV appropriately.
+#
+# Params:
+#  state: abbreviation of the state to extract ('US' for whole country)
+#  period: time period (either "2020" for current data, or anything else
+#          for historical averages)
+#
+# Call as:
+#  mlr --icsv --ojson cat weekly.csv | \
+#    jq -rsf us_mortality.jq --arg state US --arg period 2020
+#
+# [0]: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/excess_deaths.htm
