      You aren’t right, but you also aren’t stupid for wondering.
      We’ve all heard of bodies being found off in the bush, abandoned in crack houses, floating in the ocean, simply found in bed, etc. weeks or months after death. For these people the local medical examiner (not a mortician! lol) is responsible for determining the date of death; if they can't, and in most cases they usually can't, _they don't use a default value!_ They use the date the body was _found_ in lieu of the date of death. This is as much true for some poor pioneer buried along the Oregon Trail in 1850 and dug up during construction as it is for a murder victim discovered in a dumpster a few days after death.
      For the record, anyone who dies in the US (and Canada, and probably a lot of other countries) isn't legally dead until either a physician of some kind (hospital physician, family doctor, medical examiner) or a judge says so.

    Another factor that increases deaths on New Year's Day is taxes. Most doctors and administrators recognize that there are usually big tax benefits for dying on Jan 1 instead of Dec 31. If there is flexibility in when they call the time of death, they will usually err towards the new year.

    I would also say that hospitals give more experienced staff slightly more freedom to find ways to reduce their chances of having to work holidays (although getting stuck with some days you don't want to work happens to basically everyone at a hospital), so it is slightly more likely to have newer, less experienced staff members present during major holidays that more experienced people try to opt out of working and the lower people on the totem pole get stuck with.

    As a healthcare worker I wanted to pose some additional information. Many families of patients who have the misfortune of a sick loved one AND for it to occur during the holidays/end of year needing life support struggle with the decision to withdrawal support and will hold off on withdrawing that support until after the holidays. I don't think it's that large of a number, but it definitely happens more often than people give credit for.

    I was always told it was the day of daylight savings time because people get one less hour of sleep and are more likely to have a heart attack likewise the other daylight savings time is the least deadly because people get an extra hour of sleep once again lowering heart attacks.

    A single nucleotide (4:09) is not a base pair, it is simply desoxyribose and one base with one phosphorus. You then referred to the base pair as if both sides of the dna were actually involved which is allso not the case, the second half is a anticodogen strain.
    The thing that in will actually code in the end is what you meant to refer to which is actually called a codon but even a codon will not affect this much since it realistically only changes a single amino acid in a protein and will most likely not be able to have such enormous effects. Kind regards from Germany, next time maybe more fachecking...

    Re 3:47... I'd like to see how many of those Sunday homicide deaths resulted from fights or other incidents that started on a Saturday night, when people are out partying and carousing. Same concept with MV accidents on Saturday and Sunday.
    The suicide spike on Mondays? Those could be the result of attempts on Sunday by people so overwhelmed by work or school that they can't handle another week. And suddenly this "Golden Girls" fan just remembered a suicide-themed "very special episode" called "Not Another Monday," where Sophia's ailing and depressed friend gave this as her partial justification for wanting to end her life.

    The deadliest day in Finland is the midsummer or Juhannus as it’s called. On that day, many people die, due to alcohol poisoning and driving drunk. But the biggest reason is drowning. Many Finns try to swim in a lake or try to take a piss on a boat and drown.

      Also it’s the coldest month, and cold weather puts more stress on heart, which causes heart attacks to increase that month. January is also peak of flu season which also contributes to increase in deaths. Northern hemisphere countries generally have January as deadliest month while Southern Hemisphere countries usually have July

    My mom’s family members almost always die right before her birthday, 8/27. Her husband: 8/20, brother: 8/17, father: 8/24, stepmom: 8/18. The only thing I can figure, besides just bad luck, is that we live in Florida and that’s peak summertime heat in late August. Maybe people with chronic conditions just give out in the heat around that time. 😢

    Hey Sam! I think you might not have accounted for some correlation on your estimate of my death, considering day of the year and age. I mean, the study’s robustness tests seem to imply that the spike comes mostly from natural deaths, so there’s bound to be a large correlation between the first of January and the year of death.
