Deskripsi

COVID-19-releated public health measures may have indirectly impacted mortality rates by causing or averting deaths. Here, the authors use data from Switzerland until April 2022 and estimate that, after accounting for deaths directly related to COVID-19, mortality was lower than expected, indicating some evidence of an overall positive impact of control measures.
