Government Stats ***Updated Weekly (ish)***!
My aim here is to record the excess deaths for England & Wales.
The excess is mainly NOT due to COVID!
I have data going back to the start of 2022 in this table:
[

...and I will update it here in the OP when I can, hopefully every Tuesday when the ONS comes out with new numbers.
So here goes:

Excess Deaths, 2024 up to week 15 (12-Apr-2024):======================================Reminder: the figures here are NOT ADJUSTED.
I use a straight average from 2015-2019 for each week of the year, and calculate the 2024 deaths for that same week, for comparison.
Week 15 summary:-> Week 15: Overall excess 17% some likely due to Easter backlog.
-> 1,813 excess deaths largely made up of over 75's (1,420 / 1,813)
Heatmap up to Week 15: [

Overall:Week ending 05-Apr-2024: +17% excess over figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.
Week ending 05-Apr-2024: (Holiday week) -6% NO EXCESS compared to figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.
Week ending 29-Mar-2024: (Holiday week) -7% NO EXCESS compared to figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.
Week ending 22-Mar-2024: +6% excess over figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.
Week ending 15-Mar-2024: +1% excess over figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.
Week ending 08-Mar-2024: +1% excess over figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.

Week ending 05-Jan-2024: -2% NO excess over figures for 2015-2019 for the same week.
Excess Deaths, 2024 up to week 14 (05-Apr-2024):======================================Reminder: the figures here are NOT ADJUSTED.
I use a straight average from 2015-2019 for each week of the year, and calculate the 2024 deaths for that same week, for comparison.
Reminder: Easter Good Friday Bank & Easter Monday Holidays in the UK were at the end of Week13/ Start of Weeek14, i.e. 29 Mar/1Apr, so those weeks have lower
recorded deaths.
This happens because Easter isn't in the same week each year, and so the 5-year average
by week can't cope.
Week 14 summary:-> Week 14: A calm 'holiday' week. Expected 15%-20% (1/5th-1/7th) reduction in figures due to day off.
Heatmap up to Week 14: [

Excess Deaths, 2024 up to week 13 (29-Mar-2024):======================================Reminder: the figures here are NOT ADJUSTED.
Reminder: Easter Good Friday Bank Holiday in the UK was at the end of Week13, i.e. 29 Mar. so that week ahs predictacly lower
recorded deaths.
I use a straight average from 2015-2019 for each week of the year, and calculate the 2024 deaths for that same week, for comparison.
Week 11-13 summary:-> Week 11: A 55% excess in 1-14y/o. This is a 2 Standard Deviation excess. Should be uncommon.
-> Week 12: Overall 6% excess, with an 18% excess in 15-44y/o. This is a 1.5 Standard Deviation event.
-> Week 13: A relatively calm 'holiday' week. Only babies with statistically significant (13%) excess.
Heatmap up to Week 13: [
link to ibb.co (secure)]
Overall:-> Headline number is again governed by 85+yo's and they simply don't seem to be dying as much just now.
Excess Deaths, 2024 up to week 10 (08-Mar-2024):======================================Reminder: the figures here are NOT ADJUSTED.
I use a straight average from 2015-2019 for each week of the year, and calculate the 2024 deaths for that same week, for comparison.
Week 10 summary:-> A relatively calm week. No age-groups with statistically significant excess.
Heatmap Week 10: [
link to ibb.co (secure)]
Overall:-> Headline number is again governed by 85+yo's and they simply don't seem to be dying as much just now.
Excess Deaths, 2024 up to week 9 (01-Mar-2024):======================================Reminder: the figures here are NOT ADJUSTED.
I use a straight average from 2015-2019 for each week of the year, and calculate the 2024 deaths for that same week, for comparison.
Week 9 low-lights:->
54% excess death in <1yo age-group.-> This^ is a >3.5 Standard Deviation event. Should not happen without a defined cause any more than 1-in-1000 weeks.
-> 28% excess death in 15-44yo age-group. This is a >2 S.D. event.
Heatmap Week 9: [
link to ibb.co (secure)]
-> The 54% excess in <1yo (week 9) shows up bright yellow, a 3.5+ S.D. event.
-> The 100% excess in 1-14yo (week 5) shows up bright yellow, too.
-> These things should happen less than one in one thousand weeks, by chance.
-> This is not a chance event.
Overall:-> As expected, the headline number is governed by 85+yo's and they simply don't seem to be dying as much just now.
-> This^ covers up the details about younger people dying in excess.
ONS Fudging the figures
======================So, as well as changing their 'model' for excess deaths to automagically erase any signal by baking in any excess into the next estimate, the ONS simultaneously changed the format of the excel spreadsheet on Registered Deaths.
Bear With me.
What used to have ONE row per week, breaking down the registered deaths for all ages..
TABLE NOW HAS 815 ROWS added every week!A row for each Sex, Age, and place of death.
-> Meaning that what used to be a copy-paste of a single row of 'death info', by age, now has to select data from within a quagmire!
-> I have developed some filters, macros to gather what I need to relate it to the last few years' data.
->
For example, to get the deaths for just one week, ending 16th Feb., you need rows 7,43,79,115,151,187,223,259,295,331,367,403,439,475,511,547,583,619,655,691,727

Right, whining over. Let's get to it.
Excess Deaths, 2024 up to week 7:========================
Reminder: the figures here are NOT ADJUSTED.
I use a straight average from 2015-2019 for each week of the year, and calculate the 2024 deaths for that same week, for comparison.
-> As expected, the headline number covers up the details about younger people dying in excess - like 30% or more, in some weeks.
->
In February, there was a week where 1-14yo's had a 100% excess death rate! Double.-> Even considering the normally low numbers, and usual volatility that entails, my package picks this out as a >3.5 Standard Deviation excess over the expected (for that age-group and week).
-> Was there any child massacre or school-bus disaster that I missed in the week ending 02-Feb-2024?
-> 3.5 SD should happen less than a one-in-1-thousand weeks!
Heat-map tables (shows excess in young, covered up by 'headline number'):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The 100% excess in 1-14yo shows up bright yellow: [link to ibb.co (secure)] NB:I will try to get the "deaths at home" excess numbers for next time.
a quick note on 2024:
===============2024 is off to a fairly average start, similar to 2015-19.
NB: the ONS seem to have changed the format of their spreadsheet from just England & Wales to cover all four nations of the UK.
The easy-to-manage single horizontal row holding all deaths by age for a certain week, has been turned into a
column, by age and then by nation so harder to compare to prev.
Excess Deaths, 2023 full year:
=============================Right, here is the excess death for 2023 up to Week 52.
You will see it dropped off a little at the end, because I think the ONS counted the last few days of December 2023 as "Week 1" of 2024.
Except for babies <1yo, and 65-74yo ages, the excess deaths in 2023 were uniformly higher than in 2022.
(I wonder why 65-74 went down..?)
Anyway, here is the set of charts showing 2022 and 2023
excess deaths, by age:
[
link to ibb.co (secure)]
And here is the spreadsheet of excess deaths by age, showing a heatmap of Standard Deviations from the 2015-19 mean
(yellow and purple are true outliers, i.e. results not expected more than once in several years of weekly data):
[
link to ibb.co (secure)]
Concerning the reduction in deaths for <1yo, this is easily understood.
Although it seems crass to say it - the expected deaths in 2015-19 for babies <1yo was 2,683.
A 10% reduction in births (likely true for 2022 & 2023, see below) would mean about 268 fewer expected baby deaths in the following year.
This group of <1yo's rotates 100% in a calendar year, so it's a 100% transfer effect from the birth rate to the expected deaths.
We saw 269 fewer-than-expected baby deaths in 2022 compared to 2015-19 so it matches perfectly there.
For 2023, the deaths are creeping up again vs. 2022, so either births are returning to normal, or the death rate is higher than 2022.
Who knows? I'd bet on the latter.

FOREWORD 19-SEPT-23:
===================The ONS is a disgrace...My updates are based only on what they publish for free - registered deaths.
The substack below might explain the strange periods of 'consistency' about which Diffster commented - how, for periods months, there is an excess with almost no variation in week-to-week numbers (e.g a 1,000 excess for weeks on end... )
------------------------
[

"Thanks to the efforts (and expense) of a subscriber, the ONS have released a dataset of deaths by date of occurrence and age for England and Wales, "
"If you plot the two data series for all ages, you see what the lazy ONS management sees."
"The current registration-date data anomalies represent nothing more than catching up with deaths that occurred a long time ago, possibly over a year. Any analysis using this dataset is erroneous at best."
------------------------
The substack graph of "cumulative excess mortality" shows this consistency, too.
The cumulative excess graph's
slopes are ~constant for a while, then the slope will flatten off, then start upwards, again with a very constant slope.
It's like they are dribbling out the death records.
I'll say this:
You can't spot public health disaster with that kind of data, unless it's gargantuan. With the above in mind, here are the excess deaths (registered) for the last two weeks - note that the week ending 01-Sept included another bank holiday:

Notice 03 July 2023
Death occurrences in week ending 23 June may be an undercount due to data processing issues, these figures will be updated next week (week ending 30 June).
This does not impact death registrations.
Quoting: I thought perhaps to wait and do 23-June & 30-June in a 1-er next time.
FYI the ONS, even with the 'data processing issues' are reporting 10,472 deaths.
In 2015-19, for the same week of the year, the average was 9,404.
So, it's over 10% even with their issues..

So, what did I find this week?
-
10,942 deaths - of which 1,785 were *excess* deaths (on a 2015-2019 average of 9,157 deaths for the week).
-
That is 19% above average, based on 2015-2019 (previous weeks in 2022, going backwards in time were: Aug19:+21%, Aug12:+14%, Aug5:+18%, Jul29:+22%, Jul22:+21%, Jul15:+14%... above average!)
-
Only 453 of the 1,785 excess deaths were 'involving COVID' (note this is the most generous measure of attributing the excess to covid!)
-
ALL age-groups reported excess deaths - i.e. deaths above the 2015-2019 mean for the week in question.
-
A two-Standard Deviation excess observed in the 45-64 age-group has now been running for two consecutive weeks.
-
Excess deaths in the 1-14y category were 41% above average, though this figure does fluctuate a lot due to low statistics so it is only a significance of 1.5xS.D.
