Notable Deaths in July

With July behind us, we now have another month of notable deaths to analyse.

July 2022 saw 701 deaths, which is well below July 2021 with 794 deaths, but still well above July 2019 with 634 deaths:

  • 571 in July 2018
  • 634 in July 2019
  • 825 in July 2020
  • 794 in July 2021
  • 6xx in July 2022

July is a month that tends to see relatively high death rates among those younger than 70 years of age. This is probably due to accidents related to summer activities. July 2022 was different than normal in this respect, with 22.8% of deaths among those younger than 70 years of age, which is in line with what we had in July 2021 when travel restrictions were at their most intrusive. Relative to young people, this July saw an unusual high death rate among the elderly:

  • 25.74% in July 2018
  • 23.97% in July 2019
  • 25.94% in July 2020
  • 22.76% in July 2021
  • 22.82% in July 2022

Using a severity formula that divides old deaths by 10 and multiplies young deaths by 4 we get the following:

  • 630 in July 2018
  • 656 in July 2019
  • 917 in July 2020
  • 785 in July 2021
  • 694 in July 2022

July 2022 came in at 694, which is a big improvement over July 2020 with 917, but still substantially higher than 2018 and 2019 with 630 and 656 respectively.
