63,753 deaths from All Causes were among men of all ages
2022 vs New Normal™ for men of all ages in Illinois
- 63,753 of 63,753 total deaths were from All Causes
- 100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
- This is up 27% compared to Old Normal rates.
- 50,028 of 50,028 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
- 13,725 excess deaths from All Causes in 2022.
- 67,862 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)
- To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 27% 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 of all ages were there?” and
- “How many of them died from All Causes?”
The following 2 charts provide this information:
Deaths – All Causes – Male – Of All Ages | Illinois, United-states

Population – Male – Of All Ages – [2000-2022] | Illinois, United-states
![Graph showing Population - Male - Of All Ages - [2000-2022] | Illinois, United-states](/wp-content/plugins/dfuc-display/charts/united-states/illinois/2022/all/Male/GrandTotal-pop.png)
From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 63,753 of 6,142,581 men of all ages living in Illinois died from All Causes.
63,753 ÷ 6,142,581 = 0.01038 (2022 CDR)
The table shows there were a total of 752,417 deaths from All Causes among 92,384,105 men of all ages living in Illinois in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.
752,417 ÷ 92,384,105 = 0.00814 (Old Normal CDR)
We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:
2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths
6,142,581 X 0.00814 = 50,028 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:
63,753 – 50,028 = 13,725
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:
63,753 ÷ 50,028 = 1.2728
This reveals 13,725 lives lost and is 127.28% of what we expected (an increase of 27%) in deaths from All Causes among men of all ages living in Illinois 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):
406,141 ÷ 43,220,185 = 0.00940 (5-yr CDR)
6,142,581(2022 pop) X 0.00940 = 57,722 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
63,753 – 57,722 = 6,031 or 6,031 lives lost
Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:
63,753 ÷ 57,722 = 1.1033 or an increase of 10%
for deaths from All Causes among men of all ages living in Illinois 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
49,362,766 X 0.00814 = 402,032 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
469894 – 402,032 = 67,862 or 67,862 lives lost
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:
469,894 ÷ 402,032 = 1.1674 or an increase of 17%
in deaths from All Causes among men of all ages living in Illinois 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.
