Spain: No Increase In All-Cause Mortality Rate?

So this is a Reddit link, if you object to such a thing: Reddit link.
   There's been significant speculation about this, to the effect that:
(a) the people who are dying would mostly be dying soon anyway,
and
(b) the measures we've implemented have cut down so much on things like flu and car wrecks that
...in terms of total deaths, we may come out on the upside.
This is all so freaking crazy.
I'm utterly clueless.
