Excess Deaths
Quick Links
- There were a total of 3,279,754 deaths in United States in 2022
- 168,323 of all deaths were among those aged 55-59
168,323 deaths from All Causes were among people aged 55-59
2022 vs New Normal™ for people aged 55-59 in United States
- 168,323 of 168,323 total deaths were from All Causes
- 100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
- This is up 10% compared to Old Normal rates.
- 153,351 of 153,351 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
- 14,972 excess deaths from All Causes in 2022.
- 81,605 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)
- To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 10% 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 people aged 55-59 were there?” and
- “How many of them died from All Causes?”
The following 2 charts provide this information:
Deaths – All Causes – Both Sexes – Aged 55-59 | United States, United-states
Population – Both Sexes – Aged 55-59 – [2000-2022] | United States, United-states
From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 168,323 of 20,967,014 people aged 55-59 living in United States died from All Causes.
168,323 ÷ 20,967,014 = 0.00803 (2022 CDR)
Deaths/100,000 Both Sexes 55-59 from All Causes
The table shows there were a total of 1,980,982 deaths from All Causes among 270,851,784 people aged 55-59 living in United States in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.
1,980,982 ÷ 270,851,784 = 0.00731 (Old Normal CDR)
We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:
2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths
20,967,014 X 0.00731 = 153,351 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:
168,323 – 153,351 = 14,972
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:
168,323 ÷ 153,351 = 1.0961
This reveals 14,972 lives lost and is 109.61% of what we expected (an increase of 10%) in deaths from All Causes among people aged 55-59 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):
1,184,085 ÷ 152,784,795 = 0.00775 (5-yr CDR)
20,967,014(2022 pop) X 0.00775 = 162,495 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
168,323 – 162,495 = 5,828 or 5,828 lives lost
Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:
168,323 ÷ 162,495 = 1.0345 or an increase of 3%
for deaths from All Causes among people aged 55-59 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
173,751,809 X 0.00731 = 1,270,803 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
1352408 – 1,270,803 = 81,605 or 81,605 lives lost
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:
1,352,408 ÷ 1,270,803 = 1.0628 or an increase of 6%
in deaths from All Causes among people aged 55-59 living in United States 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.
