Excess mortality in England post Covid-19 pandemic: implications for secondary prevention
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science...
Many countries, including the UK, have continued to experience an apparent excess of deaths long after the peaks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
Numbers of excess deaths estimated in this period are considerable.
The UK Office for National Statistics (ONS) has calculated that there were 7.2% or 44,255 more deaths registered in the UK in 2022
OECD, UK

Excess deaths in 2022, 52,514 (9.26%)
This persisted into 2023 with 8.6% or 28,024 more deaths registered in the first six months of the year than expected.
OECD, UK, weeks 1 – 44, 2023
Excess deaths, 49,389 (9.44%)
The causes of these excess deaths are likely to be multiple and could include the direct effects of Covid-19 infection,
acute pressures on NHS acute services resulting in poorer outcomes from episodes of acute illness,
and disruption to chronic disease detection and management.
Further analysis by cause and by age- and sex-group may help quantify the relative contributions of these causes.

3rd June 2022 to 30th June 2023
Excess deaths for all causes were relatively greatest for 50–64 year olds (15% higher than expected)
11% higher for 25–49 and under 25 year olds,
and about 9% higher for over 65s
Several causes
3rd June 2022–30th June 2023
All cardiovascular diseases, 12%
Heart failure, 20%
Ischaemic heart disease, 15
Liver diseases, 19%
Acute respiratory infections, 14%
Diabetes, 13%
For middle-aged adults (50–64)
Cardiovascular diseases, 33% higher than expected
Ischaemic heart disease, 44%
Cerebrovascular disease, 40%
Heart failure 39% higher
Deaths involving acute respiratory infections, 43% higher
Diabetes, deaths were 35% higher
The pattern now is one of persisting excess deaths which are most prominent in relative terms in middle-aged and younger adults
