It's ~2100 sudden deaths, not ~350 (Aravind) or ~1300 (Eagle).

I'm using the flat file which retains the gigabyte of purged data and also notes text changes.

That is here:

I'm also catching not only sudden cardiac or sudden death but things like ... suddenly died plus died suddenly and the word sudden within 20 characters of died or death whether in front or behind those words.

You can see that here with the first 20 from 'text_columns':

Your job now is to see how many of mine are false positives. For example, the one that says this in the 'text_columns' column (a concat of them excluding HISTORY) is a false positive:

"fear of death; suddenly rising blood"

It's 2,571 using regex (?:sudden|unexpect) ... sudden OR unexpect as root, like unexpectedly died.
