2022 Deaths – All Causes – Male – All Ages | Kansas, United States

2022 vs New Normal™ for men of all ages in Kansas

1. 16,172 of 16,172 total deaths were from All Causes
2. 100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
3. This is up 25% compared to Old Normal rates.
4. 12,906 of 12,906 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
5. 3,266 excess deaths from All Causes in 2022.
6. 16,711 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)

1. To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 25% 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:

From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 16,172 of 1,454,562 men of all ages living in Kansas died from All Causes.

16,172 ÷ 1,454,562 = 0.01112 (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 180,100 deaths from All Causes among 20,297,391 men of all ages living in Kansas in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.

180,100 ÷ 20,297,391 = 0.00887 (Old Normal CDR)

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

2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths

1,454,562 X 0.00887 = 12,906 expected deaths

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

16,172 – 12,906 = 3,266

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

16,172 ÷ 12,906 = 1.2516

This reveals 3,266 lives lost and is 125.16% of what we expected (an increase of 25%) in deaths from All Causes among men of all ages living in Kansas 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):

101,472 ÷ 9,920,653 = 0.01023 (5-yr CDR)

1,454,562(2022 pop) X 0.01023 = 14,878 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

16,172 – 14,878 = 1,294 or 1,294 lives lost

Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:

16,172 ÷ 14,878 = 1.0859 or an increase of 9%

for deaths from All Causes among men of all ages living in Kansas 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

11,375,215 X 0.00887 = 100,933 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

117644 – 100,933 = 16,711 or 16,711 lives lost

Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:

117,644 ÷ 100,933 = 1.1643 or an increase of 16%

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