Details

Note: from 11 August 2022, we have switched to producing this report as a webpage and have converted the previous 4 reports from this season to webpages as well. This improves the readability of the report for a wider range of devices, including screen readers and mobile devices.

The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) weekly all-cause mortality surveillance helps to detect and report significant weekly excess mortality (deaths) above normal seasonal levels. This report doesn’t assess general trends in death rates or link excess death figures to particular factors.

Excess mortality is defined as a significant number of deaths reported over that expected for a given week in the year, allowing for weekly variation in the number of deaths. UKHSA investigates any spikes seen which may inform public health actions.

Reports are currently published weekly. In previous years, reports ran from October to September. From 2021 to 2022, reports will run from mid-July to mid-July each year. This change is to align with the reports for the national flu and COVID-19 weekly surveillance report.

This page includes reports published from 14 July 2022 to the present.
