Caveats

An annual rate pooled over three years to improve stability, not a three-year cumulative rate.
Age-standardised to the 2013 European Standard Population; not a crude count divided by population.
Deaths are counted by registration, and recent years can still be revised.
Deaths under 75 only: older deaths are excluded by design.
Confidence interval: 12.3 to 17.5 per 100,000.
Lower is better. Not a measure of personal risk.
