The New York Times said Diabetes and Blood Pressure Deaths Rise in Corona in America

 Welcome to mbctalk,

            The year 2020 in America has been unusual in terms of death statistics. There have been 356,000 more deaths here than in any other year since the Corona epidemic began, but not all deaths have been directly linked to the Corona epidemic. About a quarter more deaths than usual were due to causes such as diabetes, Alzheimer's, high blood pressure, and pneumonia. The data came from an analysis by the New York Times of the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention.

Some of these deaths may have been indirectly related to Covid-19, according to the report. Corona increased the burden on the health care system and other patients did not receive the same treatment as before. At the same time, the death toll has risen due to the deteriorating economic situation of families due to the epidemic. The death toll from diabetes this year was 15 percent higher than normal. 12 percent more deaths from Alzheimer's.

Steven Wolfe, director of society and health at Virginia Commonwealth University, said many people were confused about whether to spend on medicine or food or to keep the roof over their heads. He warned that there would be many people who would save themselves from the epidemic but the impact of the epidemic on their health and income would continue to plague them in the days to come and lead to death.

BELGIUM HAS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF DEATHS PER 10 LAKH POPULATION, FOLLOWED BY INDIA AT 75

In terms of population, Belgium has the highest number of deaths per 1 million population. As of Dec. 14, there were 1,563 deaths per 1 million in Belgium. Italy and Spain are also in the top 5 in this regard.
