Regarding the United Kingdom, we have found the total Mortality data for 2020 on the official website of Statistics for Northern Ireland (www.nisra.gov.uk), Scotland (www.nrscotland.gov.uk), and England and Wales (www.ons.gov.uk). On each website, the total mortality value for 2020 has been searched and they have been added to know the Total Mortality Value in 2020.
Let us begin:
1. Northern Ireland: From the following official web address we take the data from Table 1 of the point “Latest death registration statistics”. The total weekly sum of deaths for 2020 is 17,424 deaths.
2. Scotland: From the following official web address we download Table 2 Weekly death registrations, Scotland, 1974 to 2020. Adding the weekly data for 2020 we obtain that the total number of deaths in 2020 is 64,819 deaths. We leave you the summation table of Scotland.
3. England and Wales: From the following official web address we download the file “2020: up to week ending 1 january 2021. Adding the weekly data for 2020 we obtain the total number of deaths in 2020 of 614,114 deaths. Here you can see the summation table England and Wales
Therefore, the sum of these 3 death figures gives the total deaths in 2020 in the United Kingdom, resulting in a total death in 2020 of 696,357 deaths.
According to this 2020 Mortality data, the Table of Mortality in the United Kingdom (1960-2020) would be the following:
Consequently, the Historical Mortality Graph in the United Kingdom (1960-2020) would be the following:
1. How many deaths in total had this year 2020 in the United Kingdom according to the data available to date?
Total deaths in 2020 in the United Kingdom were 696,357, according to the sum of official data from the Northern Irish, Scottish and English Statistics Centers (the latter includes Wales).
2. Were more deaths in 2020 than in 2019?
Yes, more people died in 2020 than in 2019. 91,736 more people have died than in 2019. This represents an increase in mortality compared to 2019 of 15.17%.
Is this a lot of people? How can I compare it to get an idea?
The monthly average mortality in 2019 in the United Kingdom was 50,385 deaths/ month. Well, it would be approximately in terms of mortality as if this year 2020 there had been 1.8 months more than the usual deaths in 2019.
Considering the historical series of the last 60 years, there would be no precedent for an annual percentage rise in mortality to the height of 15.17% in the United Kingdom. Note in 1961 an increase in total annual mortality of 4.72%; in 1968 an increase in total annual mortality of 6.37; more recently, in 2015 there was an increase in total annual mortality of 5.70%.
3. Can we draw any conclusions from the long-term perspective of mortality?
United Kingdom, had a moderately upward phase between 1960 and until the mid-70s. From this date its mortality has been reducing until approximately 2011. And since this date it has been rising significantly, especially this last year 2020 where mortality has reached historical highs, above the previous historical highs of 1976.
4. Do all the countries analyzed have a similar situation of variation in mortality this year 2020 of the Global Pandemic?
With the final Mortality data for 2020, all the countries analyzed have increased their mortality compared to 2019, except Australia where it has decreased.
Regarding the countries where Mortality has grown in 2020, where we see important differences is in the proportion of the increase in mortality. Some countries have reasonable or low mortality growths, others medium or high, and others are marking percentages of annual growth in mortality not seen in 60 years.
We also find different situations for each country in the long-term charts.
