2022 Deaths – Unknown Causes – Male – Ages 5-9 | United States

2022 vs New Normal™ for boys aged 5-9 in United States

1. 822 of 1,423 total deaths were from Unknown Causes
2. 57.76% of all deaths were from Unknown Causes
3. This is down 8% compared to Old Normal rates.
4. 793 of 1,514 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
5. 29 fewer than expected deaths from Unknown Causes in 2022.
6. 91 fewer than expected All Cause deaths in 2022.
7. 499 fewer than expected deaths from Unknown Causes (2015-2022)
8. 1,590 fewer than expected All Cause deaths over the first 8 years of United States’s New Normal™.

1. To show this year’s deaths from Unknown Causes are down 8% 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 boys aged 5-9 were there?” and
• “How many of them died from Unknown Causes?”

The following 2 charts provide this information:

From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 822 of 10,231,946 boys aged 5-9 living in United States died from Unknown Causes.

822 ÷ 10,231,946 = 0.00008 (2022 CDR)

We’ll use the table below to calculate our Old Normal rate for deaths from Unknown Causes

The table shows there were a total of 11,917 deaths from Unknown Causes among 153,703,533 boys aged 5-9 living in United States in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.

11,917 ÷ 153,703,533 = 0.00008 (Old Normal CDR)

We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:

2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths

10,231,946 X 0.00008 = 793 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:

822 – 793 = 29

Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:

822 ÷ 793 = 0.9178

This reveals 29 lives saved and is 91.78% of what we expected (a decrease of 8%) in deaths from Unknown Causes among boys aged 5-9 living in United States 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):

5,103 ÷ 72,618,859 = 0.00007 (5-yr CDR)

10,231,946(2022 pop) X 0.00007 = 719 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

822 – 719 = 103 or 103 lives lost

Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:

822 ÷ 719 = 1.0008 or an increase of 0%

for deaths from Unknown Causes among boys aged 5-9 living in United States in 2022, as compared to the previous 5 years.

Compare our Old Normal to the 5yr CDR. Does it tell the same story your TV does?

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

82,850,805 X 0.00008 = 6,424 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

5925 – 6,424 = -499 or 499 lives saved

Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:

5,925 ÷ 6,424 = 0.8170 or a decrease of 18%

in deaths from Unknown Causes among boys aged 5-9 living in United States in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.
