For doctor certified deaths:

- There were 149,486 deaths that occurred during 2021 and were registered by 28 February 2022.

- This is 8,517 deaths (5.7%) more than the 2015-19 average and 7,151 deaths (5.0%) more than in 2020.

- The age-standardised death rate (SDR) for 2021 was 431.0 per 100,000 people. This was higher than in 2020 (424.5) but lower than the average for 2015-19 (459.0).

- Deaths due to respiratory diseases, specifically chronic lower respiratory conditions had a higher SDR in 2021 than in 2020 but the rate remained below the 2015-19 average.
General respiratory diseases down, COVID disease up. Could be that COVID out-competed other respiratory diseases in bodies, and society (possible), or doctors writing death certs just borrowing from respiratory disease column and adding to new COVID disease column (also possible).
