=====================
Question:
In 2009, there was a sharp increase in the number of people who were reported to have died in the country during the first week of the year, compared with the first week of the previous ten years. There seems to be no reason to explain this disproportionately high number of deaths especially because the reports were widespread in the country and there was no epidemic spreading through the country at that point in time. Moreover, most of the deaths were not among the young and could not even be attributed to binge drinking in celebration of the new year.
Which of the following can then explain the discrepancy?
A. The government announced in 2008 that estate taxes, payable by the heirs on someone's death, would be abolished effective from the new year.
B. Astrologists predicted that 2009 was a good year to die in, for salvation of the soul.
C. The statistic is an anomaly that has no logical explanation.
D. The price of some cancer drugs and chemotherapy increased by 10% in January 2009, making treatment more expensive than before.
E. An earthquake in one of the cities during December 2008 made hospital care availability more difficult for regular illnesses.
