ABSTRACT

The SARS-CoV-2 virus (termed COVID-19) has raised the mortality trends and diminished life expectancy globally. The impact of COVID-19 on mortality. however, differs across population groups, times, and locations. The current study examines some aspects of COVID-19’s impact on mortality in Asia using published estimates of excess mortality. The estimates of excess mortality all showed higher death rates than officially reported for Asian countries. Excess mortality in India and Indonesia was about 7 and 10 times higher than the reported mortality rates. In both these countries, COVID-19 was probably the leading cause of death. COVID-19 deaths were higher among men and older people. People with multiple comorbidities had a significantly higher risk of infection severity and fatality from COVID-19. There were significant inequalities in mortality rates across different socioeconomic groups, with poor households and low-paid workers disproportionately affected by COVID-19.

COVID-19 对亚洲死亡率的影响

摘要

SARS-CoV-2 病毒(称为 COVID-19)提高了全球死亡率趋势并缩短了预期寿命。COVID-19 对死亡率的影响。然而,不同的人群、时间和地点有所不同。当前的研究利用已发表的超额死亡率估计值,探讨了 COVID-19 对亚洲死亡率影响的某些方面。对超额死亡率的估计均显示亚洲国家的死亡率高于官方报告的死亡率。印度和印度尼西亚的超额死亡率比报告的死亡率高出约 7 倍和 10 倍。在这两个国家,COVID-19 可能是导致死亡的主要原因。男性和老年人中的 COVID-19 死亡人数较高。患有多种合并症的人感染 COVID-19 的严重程度和死亡风险显着更高。
