But this is not taken into account in the Death Probability column, is it? Because we also see in that column, consistently better outcomes for women, even for the very youngest age groups

10 and 11 year old boys have very similar rates of death as 10 and 11 year old girls, and it swaps some years ex: 2013.

Click on 2006 for example and men have noticeably lower rates of death in that age range, but 14 year old boys where still twice as likely to die.
