Summary: The study analyzed the life tables of 29 countries in 2020, finding that life expectancy at birth declined in most countries from 2019 to 2020, mainly due to increased mortality above age 60 and official COVID-19 deaths. The COVID-19 pandemic triggered significant mortality increases in 2020 on a scale not seen since World War II in Western Europe or the breakup of the Soviet Union in Eastern Europe.

Summary: This study found a substantial shift in the age distribution of COVID-19 deaths in countries that rapidly implemented vaccination predominantly among elderly, indicating the population-level effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination and a favorable evolution of the pandemic towards endemicity with fewer elderly deaths.

Summary: There is no quantitative definition widely accepted for the end of a pandemic like COVID-19. The end of the pandemic and transition to endemicity may be based on a high proportion of the global population having immunity from natural infection or vaccination. By the second half of 2021, it is likely that 70% of the global population has been vaccinated or infected. While outbreaks may continue to occur, they are expected to have less severe impact. Death toll and occupancy rates in ICUs also indicate a transition to endemicity by the end of 2021 or early 2022. The personal risk for most people globally is already very low, but perceived risk may still be exaggerated. Many countries continue to implement stringent restrictive measures. The attention from media and scientific circles should be tempered. Public health officials need to declare the end of the pandemic.

Summary: Different modeling approaches were used to calculate excess deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic, and large variations in the number of excess deaths were found across countries. After adjusting for age, it was found that 8 out of 33 high-income countries had no overall excess deaths, there was a deficit in child deaths, and 29.7% of the excess deaths occurred in individuals under 65 years old. Additionally, there were significant differences in excess death estimates between countries like France, Germany, Italy, and Spain.

Summary: In this cohort study of 5256 US nursing home residents with COVID-19, older age, male gender, and impaired cognitive and physical function were independently associated with increased mortality risk. Identifying these risk factors can help in developing clinical prediction models for mortality in this population.

Summary: The study highlights the high prevalence of COVID-19 among residents in nursing homes, especially those who are frail and have comorbidities. Factors associated with seropositivity among staff include age, obesity, job type, workplace seroprevalence, and contact with external COVID-19 cases. Strengthening control measures is crucial to prevent COVID-19 transmission in care facilities.

Summary: Rapid and undetected viral spread in a long-term care home led to high rates of infection among residents and staff. Progressive implementation of outbreak measures after the peak of cases prevented subsequent staff cases and are now part of long-term care outbreak policy in Ontario.

Summary: In the examined countries, the age distribution of COVID-19 deaths was similar in the second wave compared to the first wave, but the contribution of COVID-19 deaths in nursing home residents to total fatalities decreased in most countries in the second wave.

Summary: The study found that mortality risks increased for care home residents aged 65+ over the past decade, while slightly decreasing for matched community-dwelling residents. The survival gap between older care home and community-dwelling residents has been widening, especially at younger ages. In the future, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated this gap can be assessed.

Summary: The ratio of COVID-19-attributable deaths versus true COVID-19 deaths depends on various factors and is currently leading to under-counting in some countries while possibly over-counting in others. Caution is needed in attributing deaths in syndemics like COVID-19.

Summary: Research indicates that the years of life lost due to COVID-19 in Hungary is lower than expected when accounting for comorbidities, but the interpretation of this finding remains a topic of debate.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study aimed to compare the 30-day mortality in LTCF residents with and without COVID-19, and investigate the impact of various risk factors on mortality in COVID-19 cases. The study found a significantly higher mortality rate in COVID-19 cases compared to controls, with factors like older age, male sex, and neuropsychological conditions contributing to higher mortality rates in COVID-19 patients.

Summary: Excess mortality is a suitable indicator of the health consequences of COVID-19, and this study compared overall mortality in Germany, Sweden, and Spain in 2020 with previous years. The results showed minimal excess mortality in Germany, while Sweden had 3% to 8% excess mortality rates.
