[Cyprus Times] Main causes of death in Cyprus in 2020. Only 2% from coronavirus (TABLE)

Ministry of Health report on the main causes of death on the island in 2020

In 2020, 6579 deaths occurred. Included are all deaths that occurred in Cyprus (of Cyprus residents and visitors) and deaths of Cyprus residents that occurred abroad during the reporting year.

Accidents

• Unintentional accidents (n=259) occupy the largest share (85%) of deaths due to external causes. One in five accidental deaths is due to transport accidents (n=51, 20%), followed by accidental falls (n=50, 19%).
• As for intentional accidents, they include, among others, suicides (n=31, 10% of the total number of deaths from external causes) and murders (n=14, 5%).

Unclear causes of death

• Unclear causes of death (n=1024), (16% of the total number of deaths) come from: - deaths with undefined or unknown causes (ill-defined) (4% of the total number of deaths, n=259),

- deaths that are categorized as unclear or undefined diagnoses (i.e., the category of death is known but the diagnosis refers to an unclear underlying cause of death) (12% of the total number of deaths, n=765).

The largest proportion of unclear causes of death came from diseases of the circulatory system (n=412, 6% of the total number of deaths).

Early mortality

There are two categories of early mortality:

• Preventable mortality: those deaths that can be prevented through effective public health and primary public health prevention interventions (before the onset of disease/injury to reduce the incidence of new cases).
• Treatable mortality: deaths that can be avoided through timely and effective health care interventions, including secondary prevention and treatment (after disease onset to reduce the mortality rate).

In 2020, 2095 people aged under 75 years have lost their lives in Cyprus, of which just over ⅔ (n=1424, 68%) are considered early deaths: - Standardized death rate7(SDR) Treatable mortality (<75 yrs), 2020 = 77.15 deaths per 100000 population.

- Standardized death rate (SDR) Preventable mortality (<75 yrs), 2020 = 99.10 deaths per 100000 population.

• The top ten causes of preventable premature mortality (in descending order) for people under 75 years of age are: ischaemic heart disease, diabetes mellitus, vascular brain disease, malignant neoplasm of the lung, hypertensive disease, accidental injuries, chronic lower respiratory diseases, rectal cancer, renal failure, malignant neoplasm of the breast, sepsis, neoplasm of the liver.
