Pre-existing conditions of people who died due to COVID-19, broken down by country, broad age group, and place of death occurrence, usual residents of England and Wales.

Potential mediators of the association between age ≥75 years and COVID-19 mortality.

In December 2020, a survey carried out in the United Kingdom (UK) found that 87 percent of those aged 75 years of age were willing to take the COVID-19 vaccine and will take the vaccine as soon as it was offered to them. The highest support for taking vaccination was reported in the oldest age groups who are most at risk from the effects of contracting the coronavirus. On the other hand, 18 percent of those aged between 35 and 44 years said they did not want to be vaccinated and will do their best to avoid immunization, even if they were asked to do so by the NHS.

The Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) has updated the mortality profile.

The profile brings together a selection of mortality indicators, including from other OHID data tools such as the https://fingertips.phe.org.uk/profile/public-health-outcomes-framework/data" class="govuk-link">Public Health Outcomes Framework, making it easier to assess outcomes across a range of causes of death.

For the March 2023 update, 12 new indicators have been added to the profile:

• mortality rate for deaths due to COVID-19, all ages
• under 75 mortality rate for deaths due to COVID-19
• mortality rate from all cardiovascular diseases, all ages
• mortality rate from heart disease, all ages
• mortality rate from stroke, all ages
• mortality rate from cancer, all ages
• mortality rate from breast cancer, all ages
• mortality rate from colorectal cancer, all ages
• mortality rate from liver disease, all ages
• mortality rate from respiratory disease, all ages
• under 75 mortality rate from lung cancer
• mortality rate from dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, all ages

Comparing implied vaccination rates for multiple sources of denominators provides some indication of uncertainty in the true values. Confidence is higher where the results from multiple sources agree more closely. Because the denominator sources are not fully independent of one another, users should interpret the range of values across sources as indicating the minimum range of uncertainty in the true value. The following datasets can be used to estimate vaccine uptake by age group for London: ONS 2020 mid-year estimates (MYE). This is the population estimate used for age groups throughout the rest of the analysis. Number of people ages 18 and over on the National Immunisation Management Service (NIMS) ONS Public Health Data Asset (PHDA) dataset. This is a linked dataset combining the 2011 Census, the General Practice Extraction Service (GPES) data for pandemic planning and research and the Hospital Episode Statistics (HES). This data covers a subset of the population. Vaccine roll out in London by Ethnic Group Understanding how vaccine uptake varies across different ethnic groups in London is complicated by two issues: Ethnicity information for recipients is unavailable for a very large number of the vaccinations that have been delivered. As a result, estimates of vaccine uptake by ethnic group are highly sensitive to the assumptions about and treatment of the Unknown group in calculations of rates. For vaccinations given to people aged 50 and over in London nearly 10% do not have ethnicity information available, The accuracy of available population denominators by ethnic group is limited. Because ethnicity information is not captured in official estimates of births, deaths, and migration, the available population denominators typically rely on projecting forward patterns captured in the 2011 Census. Subsequent changes to these patterns, particularly with respect to international migration, leads to increasing uncertainty in the accuracy of denominators sources as we move further away from 2011. Comparing estimated population sizes and implied vaccination rates for multiple sources of denominators provides some indication of uncertainty in the true values. Confidence is higher where the results from multiple sources agree more closely. Because the denominator sources are not fully independent of one another, users should interpret the range of values across sources as indicating the minimum range of uncertainty in the true value. The following population estimates are available by Ethnic group for London:

The novel Coronavirus (Covid-19), which emerged in late 2019, has had drastic effects on the shopping habits of supermarket shoppers globally. Stockpiling of many consumer goods products surged amidst the shutdown of many businesses and quarantine measures implemented by governments around the world.

Age group differences of Coronavirus stockpiling in the UK As initial quarantine measures were implemented in the UK during the first week of March 2020, the purchase of grocery store items such as such toilet paper, household cleaners and over-the-counter medicine saw a major increase. According to a poll conducted by Ipsos, there were noticeable differences between the stockpiling behaviors of older versus younger shoppers. ** percent of shoppers in the older age range of 55 to 75 years old stated their shopping patterns were unchanged during this time. This was not the case for younger shoppers, especially 18-35-year-olds, of whom ** percent stated they did purchase additional items.

Coronavirus stockpiling in the UK versus other countries

As seen in the present chart, 42-65 percent of all those surveyed stated their grocery shopping habits have remained unchanged during the Coronavirus pandemic. This number is in accordance with another poll by in which *** in *** UK citizens stated it was unacceptable to stockpile items due to coronavirus concerns. A worldwide poll measuring stockpiling trends from ** countries further demonstrated that the stockpiling behaviors of UK consumers came in ninth place, before Australia and after France.

This study aimed to explore the impacts of, and individual reaction to, government policies for self-isolation due to COVID-19 on the Cognitive Function and Ageing Study II (CFAS II) cohort, and how that impacts on perceived loneliness and social networking and engagement. The study focused on isolation polices and how they are perceived, how they have impacted mental health, wellbeing, general health, loneliness, social care usage, the support received from others (family/neighbours etc.), and how this has changed since the measures were introduced, comparing them with the rich data held on CFAS participants from earlier waves of data collection.The COVID-19 response has also relied heavily on connectedness through the internet. There is an ambition to use technology in dementia risk and for monitoring purposes. Examining the change in individual patterns of behaviour and their preferences during and in the period after the lock down will allow unique comparison in a known population sample including those usually underrepresented – rural and in areas of social deprivation, to examine how such approaches might be developed on the ground for usual older people as opposed to those who volunteer for IT type studies. This study will provide evidence on how participants' attitudes to and usage of the internet has changed, particularly related to earlier cognitive states.Changes in mobile, smartphone and social network usage can be explored by comparing the data collected during the pilot trial. This will allow the study team to explore to what extent there has been new usage as a result of the crisis and whether urgent need has enabled new learning and acceptance of an unfamiliar technology. The information collected will provide evidence that can feed into models developed for the impact of such approaches.Evidence will also be generated at a community level examining whether community approaches have contributed to supporting individuals at different levels of earlier cognitive function; to what extent different players in the support structures (from churches to local social services) have impacted individuals, with and without cognitive impairment; and how this relates to individual advantage as well as to measures of community deprivation.This grant is funded by ESRC as part of UK Research & Innovation's rapid response to COVID-19. Further information can be found on the Impacts on social connections and wellbeing of COVID-19 policies in the Older Population: CFAS cohort Over 75s (OPPO) webpage and the CFAS website.

As of March 2020, four percent of British respondents to a survey state they have definitely contracted the coronavirus (COVID-19), and six percent have a close family member or friend who, as far as they know, has definitely contracted the virus. Although 75 percent of respondents are sure they have not contracted coronavirus and 69 percent state no family members or friends of theirs have become infected.

There were 667,479 deaths in the United Kingdom in 2021, compared with 689,629 in 2020. Between 2003 and 2011, the annual number of deaths in the UK fell from 612,085 to just over 552,232. Since 2011 however, the annual number of annual deaths in the United Kingdom has steadily grown, with the number recorded in 2020, the highest since 1918 when there were 715,246 deaths. Both of these spikes in the number of deaths can be attributed to infectious disease pandemics. The great influenza pandemic of 1918, which was at its height towards the end of World War One, and the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused numerous deaths in 2020. Impact of COVID-19 The weekly death figures for England and Wales highlight the tragic toll of the COVID-19 pandemic. In two weeks in April 2020, there were 22,351 and 21,997 deaths respectively, almost 12,000 excess deaths in each of those weeks. Although hospitals were the most common location of these deaths, a significant number of these deaths also took place in care homes, with 7,911 deaths taking place in care homes for the week ending April 24, 2020, far higher than usual. By the summer of 2020, the number of deaths in England and Wales reached more usual levels, before a second wave of excess deaths hit the country that Winter, and peaking in late January 2021. Although subsequent waves of COVID-19 cases resulted in far fewer deaths, the number of excess deaths remained elevated throughout 2022. Long-term life expectancy trends As of 2022 the life expectancy for men in the United Kingdom was 78.57, and almost 82.57 for women, compared with life expectancies of 75 for men and 80 for women in 2002. In historical terms, this is a major improvement in relation to the mid-eighteenth century, when the overall life expectancy was just under 39 years. Between 2011 and 2017, improvements in life expectancy in the UK did start to decline, and have gone into reverse since 2018/20. Between 2020 and 2022 for example, life expectancy for men in the UK has fallen by over 37 weeks, and by almost 23 weeks for women, when compared with the previous year.

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the United Kingdom, bars, pubs and restaurants were forced to close to visitors on March 20, 2020. Footfall in the hospitality sector showed a staggering decline compared to last year; Nightclubs had already seen 75 percent fewer visitors in the last seven days and restaurarnts 74 percent fewer. Footfall in restaurants fell by 94 percent on the day of the closure.

As of July 17, 2022, it was estimated that around every person aged 75 to 79 years of age in England had received at least two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine. Although the source does mention that this is likely to be an overestimation due to population figures taken from 2020. The data shows that at least a quarter of men under 30 years of age have not yet had two vaccine doses, with women more likely to be vaccinated among younger age groups.
