2022 Deaths – Unknown Causes – Male – 35-39 | Ontario, Canada

2022 vs New Normal™ for men aged 35-39 in Ontario

1. 174 of 657 total deaths were from Unknown Causes
2. 26.48% of all deaths were from Unknown Causes
3. This is up 489% compared to Old Normal rates.
4. 24 of 550 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
5. 150 excess deaths from Unknown Causes in 2022.
6. 107 excess All Cause deaths in 2022.
7. 410 excess deaths from Unknown Causes (2015-2022)
8. 469 excess All Cause deaths over the first 8 years of Ontario’s New Normal™.

1. To show this year’s deaths from Unknown Causes are up 489% 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 men aged 35-39 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, 174 of 523,249 men aged 35-39 living in Ontario died from Unknown Causes.

174 ÷ 523,249 = 0.00033 (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 328 deaths from Unknown Causes among 7,054,473 men aged 35-39 living in Ontario in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.

328 ÷ 7,054,473 = 0.00005 (Old Normal CDR)

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

2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths

523,249 X 0.00005 = 24 expected deaths

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

174 – 24 = 150

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

174 ÷ 24 = 5.8861

This reveals 150 lives lost and is 588.61% of what we expected (an increase of 489%) in deaths from Unknown Causes among men aged 35-39 living in Ontario 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):

411 ÷ 3,234,175 = 0.00013 (5-yr CDR)

523,249(2022 pop) X 0.00013 = 66 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

174 – 66 = 108 or 108 lives lost

Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:

174 ÷ 66 = 2.4259 or an increase of 143%

for deaths from Unknown Causes among men aged 35-39 living in Ontario 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

3,757,424 X 0.00005 = 175 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

585 – 175 = 410 or 410 lives lost

Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:

585 ÷ 175 = 2.7558 or an increase of 176%

in deaths from Unknown Causes among men aged 35-39 living in Ontario in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.
