  • Grenada recorded 1,526 live births and 26 infant deaths in 2020
  • More males are born annually, and there are more male deaths (infants and adults)
  • Grenada’s population currently stands at 112,526

Data on the Central Statistical Office (CSO) website has revealed that Grenada recorded 1,526 live births and 26 infant deaths in 2020. For the first time since 2000, over 1,000 people have died.

The data over the 20-year period 2000 to 2020 show a constant dwindling of live births. In the year 2000 there were 1,883 live births and by 2017 that figure reduced to 1,398. The least number of infant deaths was in 2008 when 9 were recorded, but during the 20-year period, the average infant deaths was 25. The highest number of infant deaths was 36 in the year 2002.

A breakdown by sex shows that more males are born annually, and there are more male deaths (infants and adults).

In 2020 the number of males born at the various facilities was 776; females born was 750. Under the death statistics, there were 432 males and 575 females, a total of 1,007 deaths.

The death rate from 2000 to 2020 also shows a constant increase in deaths among adults. In 2000 the annual deaths were 765 and by 2021 it was 1,007. For the first time since 2014, there were more females dying. In 2014, 444 females and 514 males died. In 2020, 575 females and 432 males died. The public data does not provide the average age of the deceased adults.

Grenada’s population currently stands at 112,526 according to World Bank 2019 data, but at the end of 2021 that data is expected to change because 2021 is a census year. The census will be conducted from September to December.

    With a population of 112k we are very easy to handle .
    The government was given a stimulus package from WHO for which they claimed was used as such but I can’t remember seeing any the health centres being active in helping their citizens.
    Don’t forget how much money was spent on legal expenses to fight WRB ….that money came from the government of Grenada.
    Although we now have a majority share of Grenlec it came at a great cost to the nation.

    Interesting data.
    So in 2020 Grenada population was 112,526.
    Total of 1526 births plus (26 babies died).
    Total of 1007 deaths.

    When you consider the Government overreaction to SarsCov2 with a death rate on par with a bad outbreak of Influenza at IFR of 0.14 – 0.15,…..which resulted in a grand total of just one single CV19 death in Grenada, it blows the mind and truly put things into perspective.

    Imagine, more babies (26) died in Grenada than people with CV19 at just (1) person. Of course I expect the Government will pat themselves on the back and claim its because of ….the wonderful job they did. Yeah right!

    Next, add in all the Heart, Stroke, Cancer, Diabetes, Kidney, Liver and other diseases and combined deaths in Grenada, are numbers which would really place the Covid money and power scam, into its true corrupt perspective.

    Grenada is very lucky, most people diet include fish and they enjoy the sunlight, so their natural Vitamin D3 is high, and probably a lot higher than Trinidad where a diet high in processed fast foods have result in D3 deficiency and increased obesity, that contributed to the 656 CV19 deaths that killed many more Trinis.

    Mind you, I have notice a lot more overweight and obese women in Grenada. Grenadians used to have strong toned bodies but now I see endless men walking around like if they are pregnant.

    Well one thing we have learned its that SarsCov2 which is now endemic absolutely loves fat people.
    So those fat people who care about surviving SarsCov2, would be wise to stop shovelling endless food in their mouths because SarsCov2 do like to carry away fat and heavy people.

    Britain and America tops the league in deaths, and they have endless obese people. So maybe SarsCov2 is trying to send a message….
    But will people listen?

      Actually India has done far worse. I guess they have too many “obese women” over there, too?

        Question….What is the overwhelming factor as regards to CV19 deaths?

        Answer….A compromised or Immune System.

        Have a Healthy Immune System and SarsCov2 will do little or nothing to 99.97% of people.on planet Earth

        Factors that make one a CV19 prime candidate are…..
        1. Age…. approximately 83 years old.
        2. Compromised Health and Immune System.
        3. Obesity or overweight, eating far more calories than your healthy body require.

        We cant do anything about age but boosting Immunity and eating healthy.. unless you are lazy, stupid or dont care, these are achievable health objectives. In fact many Healthy old people had the SarsCov2 virus but…. suffered little or no effect from SarsCov2 or developed CV19.

        And as far as the data shows for CV19 deaths per million….
        Uk deaths 1875/M
        US deaths 1848/M
        India deaths 269/M
        TnT deaths 477/M
        Grenada deaths 9/M.

        And in India case their criminal Politicians are being taken to High Court by India Human Rights Lawyers after the Politicians, stopped Indians taking HCQ and Ivermectin etc, and forced them to inject these Experimantal Genetic Quack-ccines, that killed a lot of people with deaths per million soaring from 119/M to current 269/M.

        So yes, there are lot of obese Grenadain women who need to lose weigh not only because of SarsCov2 but lets face it from beauty and esthetic….its not a good look.

    Seems to be a typo: the headline/summary points say “there are more male deaths (infants and adults).” But later in the article, it says, “In 2020, 575 females and 432 males died.” Seems there were actually more female deaths, no?
