There's also about 4,500 deaths over a year after the fatality waiting just to be registered due to coroner investigations. These have doubled in the past few years. That's not the only way deaths can fail to be registered so I wonder if ONS even presents the real number of deaths??
But go to 12:40 ish, if you do not watch the full minutes and you can the reduction in figures as stated above for 2023. Reduced the excess deaths since 2020 by over 31,000.
Wish I could read some of the outraged responses on Twitter. Nitter.cz had to close up shop on the 15th of this month, and that was the last way to read X without having to login. I'm not sure if I want to hand over even more personal info to be able to read X. Sigh.
I'm no statistician, heck I barely got a CSE (yep I'm over 51) in maths, but my bullshitter sense is highly tuned. As soon as any official organisation says we now have a new method my nose starts twitching. As for twitter fiddling numbers a tweet tagging musk can't do any harm... can it?
There may be an innocent explanation for this. According to Statista there were 70,000 more live births in 1947 than in 1946. It seems 1947 was a record year for live births, possibly due to soldiers returning home from the war after some years absence.
Therefore there would be a lot more people moving from the 70-74 category into the 75-79 category in 2022.
