You’re much more likely to die of a disease rather than something external. Shift age to the older years, and let the simulations run. But, if you do die at a younger age, it’s much more likely due to something external rather than a disease. The main point, which is what you’d expect, is that mortality rate is much lower in the earlier years of life than in the older years. You couldn’t see this in the normalized chart. It’s not until later years when the dots start to change color much quicker. One thing that you should notice is that once you get past year one, it’s low likelihood that you die in the next few decades. Try shifting age down to zero and watch the rate of change. By the end, you’re left with the chances that you will die of each cause. Color corresponds to cause of death, and the bars on the right keep track of the cumulative percentages. Each dot represents one of your simulated lives, and as each year passes, more of your simulated selves pass away. The simulation below covers the main categories, or chapters, as they’re referred to by the ICD.Įnter your sex, race, and age. More specifically, the CDC uses the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), which is published by the World Health Organization. The CDC classifies the causes into 113 subcategories, which fit under the umbrella of 20 categories of disease and external causes. The records are based on death certificates, which require an entry for a single cause of death. It provides data for the number of people who died in the United States between 19. I returned to the Underlying Cause of Death database maintained by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Now let’s put the two together to see how and when you will die, given your sex, race, and age. So far we’ve seen when you will die and how other people tend to die.
