More British Citizens Dying of Heart Attacks – Report

In 2022, mortality from cardiovascular diseases among British citizens aged 15–44 years old increased by 44%, says a newly published report.

The report also found that annual mortality from cardiovascular disease had a downward trend from 2010 to 2019, but the trend reversed in 2020. Moreover, in 2022, men began to outpace women in cardiovascular diseases.

Using official government data for deaths in England and Wales between 2010 and 2022, former BlackRock portfolio manager Ed Dowd and his partners at Phinance Technologies found that excess death rates from cardiovascular diseases were up 13% in 2020, 30% in 2021, and 44% in 2022, which “point to a worrying picture of an even greater acceleration in coming years of deaths & disabilities.”
