Sociodemographic differences in the risk of suicides in children and young people
BACKGROUND: Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in children and young people (CYP) globally. Over the past decade, there has been a steady increase in the number of suicide deaths in CYP in the UK. This study aims to identify sociodemographic differences in the risk of suicide in CYP. METHODS: Using linked 2011 Census and death registrations data, we created a cohort of 7 747 345 CYP aged 10 to 17 years in England. We estimated adjusted…
Excess mortality among essential workers in England and Wales during the Covid-19 pandemic
BACKGROUND: Excess mortality from all causes combined during the COVID-19 pandemic in England and Wales in 2020 was predominantly higher for essential workers. In 2021, the vaccination programme had begun, new SARS-CoV-2 variants were identified and different policy approaches were used. We have updated our previous analyses of excess mortality in England and Wales to include trends in excess mortality by occupation for 2021. METHODS: We estimate…
Should I Care or Should I Work? The Impact of Work on Informal Care
This paper provides novel evidence on how a sharp increase in labor force participation among older women affects the provision of informal care to their older parents. Based on data from Understanding Society – The UK Household Longitudinal Study, we use an instrumental variable approach that exploits a unique reform that increased the female State Pension age by up to six years. Our results provide evidence of a trade‐off between the intensive …
Monitoring sociodemographic inequality in Covid-19 vaccination uptake in England
BACKGROUND: The UK began an ambitious COVID-19 vaccination programme on 8 December 2020. This study describes variation in vaccination uptake by sociodemographic characteristics between December 2020 and August 2021. METHODS: Using population-level administrative records linked to the 2011 Census, we estimated monthly first dose vaccination rates by age group and sociodemographic characteristics among adults aged 18 years or over in England. We a…
Excess mortality among essential workers in England and Wales during the Covid-19 pandemic
BACKGROUND: Exposure to SARS-CoV-2, subsequent development of COVID-19 and death from COVID-19 may vary by occupation, and the risks may be higher for those categorised as 'essential workers'. METHODS: We estimated excess mortality by occupational group and sex separately for each month in 2020 and for the entire 12 months overall. RESULTS: Mortality for all adults of working age was similar to the annual average over the previous 5 years. Monthl…
Religious affiliation and Covid-19-related mortality
BACKGROUND: COVID-19 mortality risk is associated with demographic and behavioural factors; furthermore, religious gatherings have been linked with the spread of COVID-19. We sought to understand the variation in risk of COVID-19-related death across religious groups in England and Wales both before and after the first national lockdown. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of usual residents in England and Wales enumerated at the 2…
Long-term effects of compulsory schooling on physical, mental and cognitive ageing
BACKGROUND: Longer schooling is associated with better physical, mental and cognitive functioning, but there is controversy as to whether these associations are causal. We examine the long-term health impact of a policy that increased compulsory schooling by 2 years in France for cohorts born on or after January 1953, offering a natural experiment. METHODS: Data came from Constances, a randomly selected cohort of the French population assessed fo…
Longer schooling but not better off? A quasi-experimental study of the effect of compulsory schooling on biomarkers in France
Less schooling is associated with increased biological risks for chronic disease, but whether increasing years of schooling through policy interventions reduces these risks remains unclear. We examine the effect of a major education reform introduced in 1959 that raised the minimum school leaving age from 14 to 16 years in France, offering a unique natural experiment. We assess the causal impact of increased schooling duration on 16 biomarkers of…
