'Deaths of despair' rising among middle-aged Britons, report warns Deaths from suicide, drug and alcohol overdoses are rising among middle-aged Britons, the Institute of Fiscal Studies has warned as it launches a major five-year study into social inequality.
The think tank said the increase in such fatalities, dubbed “deaths of despair”, may be linked to a process of "cumulative disadvantage for less-educated people".
Such deaths, which include drink-related liver disease, among 45-54-year-olds in England continued to rise between 1993 and 2017. The Daily Telegraph
