Only Italy, UK are worse.

There's something troubling about our #COVID19 death rates in the 2nd wave

I've calculated total per capita case & death numbers since Aug 17 (2nd wave) & compared these to values for our peer countries (high income, pop >20M)

The average #COVID19 per capita case number in our peer countries is higher than today's value for #Canada, although our number has increased by 23% in the last 7 days (not good).

This makes sense, though--our cases started growing later than in many European countries & US

Important preprint: @LauraCRosella and colleagues.

Estimating excess mortality in #Ontario during #COVID19 first wave using cremation data

Some observations summarized in thread.

medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Cremation numbers in #Ontario at peak of #COVID19 1st wave vs 2017-2019:

⬆️>30% deaths all ages
⬆️38% deaths in >75 age grp
⬆️89% deaths in longterm care homes
⬆️68% deaths at home

No significant change: hospitals deaths
Study monitors cremations as death indicator.

In ON ~70% of deaths cremated. No change in this rate from 2017-2019 to 2020.

So, increased cremations not due to increased cremation "popularity". Instead, likely related to excess mortality directly & indirectly due to #COVID19.
