2022 vs New Normal™ for elderly men and women aged 70-74 in Nova Scotia
1,356 of 1,356 total deaths were from All Causes
100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
This is down 7% compared to Old Normal rates.
1,462 of 1,462 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
106 fewer deaths from All Causes in 2022.
1,450 fewer deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)
To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are down 7% compared to Old Normal rates, we need to calculate the rates for both 2022 and for the Old Normal.
Remember, death rates are calculated to answer these questions:
“How many elderly men and women aged 70-74 were there?” and
“How many of them died from All Causes?”
The following 2 charts provide this information:
Deaths – All Causes – Elderly Men And Women – Aged 70-74 | Nova Scotia, Canada
Populalation – Elderly Men And Women – Aged 70-74 – [2001-2022] | Nova Scotia, Canada
From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 1,356 of 59,090 elderly men and women aged 70-74 living in Nova Scotia died from All Causes.
1,356 ÷ 59,090 = 0.02295 (2022 CDR)
We’ll use the table below to calculate our Old Normal rate for deaths from All Causes

The table shows there were a total of 11,962 deaths from All Causes among 483,610 elderly men and women aged 70-74 living in Nova Scotia in the 14 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.
11,962 ÷ 483,610 = 0.02473 (Old Normal CDR)
We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:
2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths
59,090 X 0.02473 = 1,462 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:
1,356 – 1,462 = -106
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:
1,356 ÷ 1,462 = 0.9274
This reveals 106 lives saved and is 92.74% of what we expected (a decrease of 7%) in deaths from All Causes among elderly men and women aged 70-74 living in Nova Scotia in 2022, as compared to the Old Normal.

This is the same method used by Public Health to calculate the 5-yr CDR (Cumulative Death Rate):
7,587 ÷ 361,073 = 0.02101 (5-yr CDR)
59,090(2022 pop) X 0.02101 = 1,242 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
1,356 – 1,242 = 114 or 114 lives lost
Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:
1,356 ÷ 1,242 = 1.0916 or an increase of 9%
for deaths from All Causes among elderly men and women aged 70-74 living in Nova Scotia in 2022, as compared to the previous 5 years.
Finally, the same method can also be used to compare our Old Normal rate to the New Normal™ rate:
New Normal™ population X Old Normal rate = expected deaths
420,163 X 0.02473 = 10,393 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
8943 – 10,393 = -1,450 or 1,450 lives saved
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:
8,943 ÷ 10,393 = 0.8602 or a decrease of 14%
in deaths from All Causes among elderly men and women aged 70-74 living in Nova Scotia in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.

The world has been led to believe that a deadly pandemic swept the globe beginning in 2020, causing an increase in death rates, especially among the elderly
The data show that death rates began to increase in 2015, immediately upon implementation of the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, that young adults have experienced ever-increasing death rates since, and that death rates among the elderly have remained relatively stable.
Browse through the age-categorized charts below to see the evidence of this. Click on any chart to see the full analysis for each age group.
10,780 of the 10,780 deaths among individuals of all ages living in Nova Scotia in 2022 were from All Causes (100.00% of all deaths).
