The deadliest year in US history was in 2021. There has been an increase in deaths. Robert Anderson, who oversees the work of death statistics at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said that it was carbon-19. The agency quietly updated its death tally. It showed there were more deaths last year than in 2020. The first year of the Pandemic was bad, but some experts were optimistic that the second year would be less so. Noreen Goldman said that they were wrong. The number of deaths from coronaviruses rose from 351,000 in the year before to more than 415,000 in the year after. The coronaviruses are not solely to blame. The crude death rate for cancer rose slightly, and the rates for diabetes, chronic liver disease and stroke continued to increase according to preliminary CDC data. Drug overdose deaths continued to increase. It can take weeks of lab work and investigation to identify overdose deaths, so the CDC doesn't have a tally for 2021. The nation is on track to see at least 105,000 overdose deaths in 2021, up from 93,000 the year before, according to data through October. There was a large jump in overdose deaths among 14- to 18-year-olds. According to a paper published by the Journal of the American Medical Association, overdose death counts for adolescents were constant for most of the last decade. The researchers estimated that the total hit 1,150 last year, and that they almost doubled in 2020. Joseph Friedman, a UCLA researcher who was the paper's lead author, called the spike unprecedented. There were only a small number of teen overdose deaths. Even though surveys suggest drug use among teens is down, adolescents experienced a greater relative increase than the overall population. Fentanyl is a highly lethal drug that has been cut into heroin for several years. It has also been put into counterfeit pills that look like prescription drugs. An estimate of the average number of years a baby born in a given year will live is influenced by national death trends. U.S. life expectancy has risen year after year. The CDC's life expectancy estimate for 2020 was about a year and a half lower than it was in 2019. The CDC hasn't reported its calculation yet. Goldman and other researchers have presented their estimates in papers that have not yet been published. The researchers think life expectancy in the U.S. will fall another five or six months in 2021. Goldman said that a loss of more than two years of life expectancy is mammoth. The study looked at death data in 19 high-income countries. The U.S. did not fare well. The public's rejection of practices, such as masking and mandates, to reduce viral transmission, is one of the study's findings. Some experts don't think life expectancy will bounce back quickly. They worry about the long-term effects of COVID-19 on people with chronic health problems. There were at least 805,000 deaths in the US in the first three months of the year, according to preliminary data from the CDC. That is lower than the same period last year, but higher than the one in 2020. Anderson said that the new normal may be a little higher than before.
