2022 vs New Normal™ for elderly men and women aged 80+ in Maryland
4,664 of 23,172 total deaths were from Unknown Causes
20.13% of all deaths were from Unknown Causes
This is down 1% compared to Old Normal rates.
4,732 of 23,466 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
68 fewer deaths from Unknown Causes in 2022.
294 fewer All Cause deaths in 2022.
2,334 more deaths from Unknown Causes (2015-2022)
9,077 more All Cause deaths over the first 8 years of Maryland’s New Normal™.
To show this year’s deaths from Unknown Causes are down 1% 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 elderly men and women aged 80+ were there?” and
“How many of them died from Unknown Causes?”
The following 2 charts provide this information:
Deaths – Unknown Causes – Elderly Men And Women – Aged 80+ | Maryland, United-states
Population – Elderly Men And Women – Aged 80+ – [2000-2022] | Maryland, United-states
From the charts, we can see that in 2022, 4,664 of 120,179 elderly men and women aged 80+ living in Maryland died from Unknown Causes.
4,664 ÷ 120,179 = 0.03881 (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 56,449 deaths from Unknown Causes among 1,433,786 elderly men and women aged 80+ living in Maryland in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.
56,449 ÷ 1,433,786 = 0.03937 (Old Normal CDR)
We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:
2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths
120,179 X 0.03937 = 4,732 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:
4,664 – 4,732 = -68
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:
4,664 ÷ 4,732 = 0.9855
This reveals 68 lives saved and is 98.55% of what we expected (a decrease of 1%) in deaths from Unknown Causes among elderly men and women aged 80+ living in Maryland 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):
31,452 ÷ 737,862 = 0.04263 (5-yr CDR)
120,179(2022 pop) X 0.04263 = 5,123 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
4,664 – 5,123 = -459 or 459 lives saved
Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:
4,664 ÷ 5,123 = 0.9102 or a decrease of 9%
for deaths from Unknown Causes among elderly men and women aged 80+ living in Maryland 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
858,041 X 0.03937 = 33,782 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
36116 – 33,782 = 2,334 or 2,334 lives lost
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:
36,116 ÷ 33,782 = 1.0688 or an increase of 7%
in deaths from Unknown Causes among elderly men and women aged 80+ living in Maryland 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.
