2022 Deaths – All Causes – Female – Ages 50-54 | United States

2022 vs New Normal™ for women aged 50-54 in United States

1. 41,419 of 41,419 total deaths were from All Causes
2. 100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
3. This is up 5% compared to Old Normal rates.
4. 39,157 of 39,157 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
5. 2,262 excess deaths from All Causes in 2022.
6. 12,779 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2022)

1. To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 5% 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 women aged 50-54 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, 41,419 of 10,372,906 women aged 50-54 living in United States died from All Causes.

41,419 ÷ 10,372,906 = 0.00399 (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 600,247 deaths from All Causes among 159,010,193 women aged 50-54 living in United States in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.

600,247 ÷ 159,010,193 = 0.00377 (Old Normal CDR)

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

2022 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths

10,372,906 X 0.00377 = 39,157 expected deaths

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

41,419 – 39,157 = 2,262

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

41,419 ÷ 39,157 = 1.0550

This reveals 2,262 lives lost and is 105.50% of what we expected (an increase of 5%) in deaths from All Causes among women aged 50-54 living in United States 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):

294,285 ÷ 75,172,614 = 0.00391 (5-yr CDR)

10,372,906(2022 pop) X 0.00391 = 40,608 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

41,419 – 40,608 = 811 or 811 lives lost

Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:

41,419 ÷ 40,608 = 1.0174 or an increase of 2%

for deaths from All Causes among women aged 50-54 living in United States 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

85,545,520 X 0.00377 = 322,925 expected deaths

The difference between actual and expected deaths:

335704 – 322,925 = 12,779 or 12,779 lives lost

Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:

335,704 ÷ 322,925 = 1.0368 or an increase of 4%

in deaths from All Causes among women aged 50-54 living in United States in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.
