Excerpt

According to the latest statistics on trends in death rates (per 100,000 population) for leading causes of death in Japan, the death rate due to malignant neoplasms exceeded that of cerebrovascular diseases in 1981 to take the top spot, after which it has continued to increase while maintaining that top spot by an overwhelming margin. It is a scientifically proven fact that people are more likely to develop malignant neoplasms as they grow older, so this is no surprise given Japan's declining birthrate and growing proportion of elderly people. In addition, the death rate due to senility exceeded that of cerebrovascular diseases in 2018. The current leading causes of death in Japan are malignant neoplasms at number one, heart diseases excluding hypertension at number two, and senility at number three. …
