The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has released the biggest causes of mortality in 2023.
The report, published by the agency on Aug. 8, was based on death records from the National Vital Statistics System.
A total of 3,090,582 deaths occurred in the U.S. in 2023, a decline of 6.1% compared to 2022, the report stated.
"The overall death rate is decreasing," Dr. Marc Siegel, senior medical analyst for Fox News and clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center, told Fox News Digital.
"The key change is decreased deaths from COVID as the population builds up more immunity."

Stroke is fairly treatable if acted upon quickly, with minimal damage.
Is abortion at the top? If not, it should be.
In the future if they cure everything, we’ll all be laying around dying of nothing.

Motor vehicle deaths in 2023: 40,990. Dunno if that’s folded into #3 above or not.
I call those, in most cases....died of old age...
The body has limits...and one of those is "age".
or... most of the people who were going to die from COVID already have.
As the smoking population declines these numbers will change towards more obesity related diseases.
All the processed crap people eat will catch up with them.
“Unintentional injury”
Where does intentional injury place? We might want a number to compare to next year.

1. Heart disease
2. Cancer
3. Unintentional injury
4. Stroke
5. Chronic lower respiratory diseases
6. Alzheimer’s disease
7. Diabetes
8. Kidney disease
9. Chronic liver disease and cirrhosis
10. COVID-19
We all dearly love FReepers who post a headline without any meaningful information or summary. And ‘poast’ and run.
“Stoke” does not appear on this list, and all Americans should support the stokers who tend to the coal-burning furnaces that make up our great manufacturers. Those stokers do not get enough credit for the dangerous job they do.
PS: buy blue coal. The Shadow knows. To protect your family’s health and save money in the bargain, burn Blue Coal.
Euthanasia is the fifth leading cause of death in Canada.
