2022 Deaths – All Causes – Both Sexes – All Ages | Indiana, United States

2022 vs New Normal™ for individuals of all ages in Indiana

1. 75,366 of 75,366 total deaths were from All Causes
2. 100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
3. This is up 24% compared to Old Normal rates.
4. 60,809 of 60,809 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
5. 14,557 excess deaths from All Causes in 2022.
6. 77,365 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)

1. To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 24% 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 individuals of all ages were there?” and
• “How many of them died from All Causes?”

The following 2 charts provide this information:

From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 75,366 of 6,706,357 individuals of all ages living in Indiana died from All Causes.

75,366 ÷ 6,706,357 = 0.01124 (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 850,164 deaths from All Causes among 93,761,353 individuals of all ages living in Indiana in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.

850,164 ÷ 93,761,353 = 0.00907 (Old Normal CDR)

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

2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths

6,706,357 X 0.00907 = 60,809 expected deaths

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

75,366 – 60,809 = 14,557

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

75,366 ÷ 60,809 = 1.2380

This reveals 14,557 lives lost and is 123.80% of what we expected (an increase of 24%) in deaths from All Causes among individuals of all ages living in Indiana 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):

479,984 ÷ 46,008,745 = 0.01043 (5-yr CDR)

6,706,357(2022 pop) X 0.01043 = 69,964 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

75,366 – 69,964 = 5,402 or 5,402 lives lost

Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:

75,366 ÷ 69,964 = 1.0762 or an increase of 8%

for deaths from All Causes among individuals of all ages living in Indiana 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

52,715,102 X 0.00907 = 477,985 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

555350 – 477,985 = 77,365 or 77,365 lives lost

Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:

555,350 ÷ 477,985 = 1.1606 or an increase of 16%

in deaths from All Causes among individuals of all ages living in Indiana in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.
