Why this is the most DANGEROUS time of the year: Death rates peak on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and at New Year

Highest death rates are on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day
Includes increase in deaths from cancer and circulatory problems
The figures hold true for all age groups except for children
Trend could be caused by stress, overindulgence or cold weather
But, researchers think it's most likely to be due to reduced access to healthcare and short staffed hospitals
