Data from the Ministry of Health show that the average age of the dead from Corona is 79.5.
The average age of men who died after contracting the virus was 77.7, while among women the average age of deaths was 81.9.
According to the data, more men died from the virus (56%) than women (44%).
The data also show that in October the daily death toll rose.
Since September 30, 417 people have been added to the death toll (about 40 die every day).
A segmentation of the ages of the dead shows that about one-fifth of the dead (22%, 445 people) are aged 90 and over.
The largest group of dead are 89-80 year olds, who are more than a third of the dead (34.3%, 682 people).
About a quarter of the dead (24.7%, 492 people in total) are 79-70 years old.
11.8% of all the dead, 235 people, are 69-60 years old.
4.5% of the dead are aged 59-50;
89 people belong to this age group among the dead.
Four dead aged 29-20
42 dead were less than 50 years old.
24 of them were aged 49-40;
It is also known that ten dead were aged 39-30, and four were only aged 29-20.
Three of the dead were boys aged 19-10 (including a 19-year-old girl from East Jerusalem), and one - a girl with cancer from the Palestinian Authority - was less than 9 years old at the time of her death.
The risk increases with age
The distribution of the dead by place of residence shows that 229 of them lived in Jerusalem.
115 of the dead were residents of Tel Aviv;
104 lived in Bnei Brak;
83 - in Bat Yam;
77 - in Haifa;
70 - in Ashdod;
63 - in Holon;
57 - in Rishon Lezion;
50 - in Ramat Gan;
48 - in Ramla;
44 - in Netanya;
40 - in Hadera;
38 - in Ashkelon;
37 - in Be'er Sheva;
30 - in the streets;
28 - in Raanana;
26 - in Kfar Saba;
24 - in Herzliya;
22 - in Kiryat Gat;
21 - in Lod;
The same number in Afula;
And 19 - in Baqa al-Gharbiya.
Quite interesting data emerge from the analysis of the relative risk of mortality among all those infected.
The risk, it seems, increases with age.
By age 59 the risk of a person infected with corona dying from the virus is less than one percent;
Among 59-50 year olds the risk of mortality is 0.4%;
Among those aged 49-40 - 0.08%;
And among those aged 39-30, the risk is 0.03%.
By age 29 the risk of a person infected with corona dying is 0.01%, and by age 9 - 0%.
However, more than a third (37.8%) of those aged 90 and over who become infected with corona die from the virus.
This is also the case for one-fifth (19.8%) of 89-80-year-olds, and 7.2% of 79-70-year-olds.
The mortality risk of 69-60-year-olds infected with corona is less than 2% (1.69%).
It should be noted that this data analysis is based on a count of 1,985 deaths entered in Ministry of Health databases.
