Until 2019, the total number of deaths increased by 20,000 every year, but it turns out that 2020 is a singular year with a decrease of 9,000 on a breaking report (8,500 on a monthly report) from 2019.


Since the beginning of 2020, the total number of deaths was slightly lower than usual, but in the latter half, it was slightly higher than usual. It has been on a clear increasing trend since 2022, and it can be said that the number of deaths in May is about 10,000 more than usual, and after that, the number of deaths every month is several thousand less than 10,000.
