Original Request
Please would you provide the all cause mortality figures for the last 10 years (2010-2020 inclusive)? By all cause mortality, I mean the total numbers of deaths of Manx residents who died by any means, on the Isle of Man. Please show a monthly breakdown of these figures to allow for comparison. If it ispossible to group the deaths into general causes (ie. cardiovascular, respiratory, Alzheimer's, cancer, etc.) it would be helpful, but not essential. Data can be presented in whichever format you see fit.
