Video: Post-Pandemic Mortality Trends Explored

A summary look at RGA's in-depth analysis of US mortality data

In Brief

In this brief video, RGA's Micah Canaday, Vice President of Americas Data Solutions, explains how RGA is using CDC population mortality data to derive insights into medium-term and possibly longer-term changes.

RGA's full US mortality report is due out later this year – ask us about a sneak preview.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, recent years’ data is not a reliable predictor of future mortality. Using the CDC’s death data and USCB’s population estimates, RGA has conducted a thorough analysis of emerging data to identify how US mortality has changed through the pandemic, determine what it looks like in the short term, and understand where it may be headed in the coming years. Read the summary article.

RGA’s full US mortality report, due out later this year, will provide detailed analysis of pandemic-driven changes in US mortality experience – both all-cause and by-cause – and compare current mortality with pre-pandemic expectations.
