The advice from coroners is that 'old age' can be given as the sole cause of death in some 'very limited circumstances'.
Queen Elizabeth II died of "old age", according to her death certificate, which has been released by the National Records of Scotland.Princess Anne is recorded as the person providing the information about the Queen's death.The doctor who certified the death at Balmoral in Aberdeenshire was Douglas Glass, who Buckingham Palace says was an "apothecary to the Queen".
This would be where the certifying doctor has personally cared for someone over a long period; where a gradual decline has been observed and where a doctor is not aware of any identifiable disease or injury contributing to a death. Buckingham Palace had formally announced the Queen's death at 18:30, with news organisations around the world immediately relaying the announcement that: "The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon."
