Mortality as of week 39 higher than expected
As of week 39, weekly mortality is higher than expected. With the exception of elevated mortality in weeks 33 and 34 during the heat wave, the average weekly death count fell slightly below the expected levels as of week 19 had there not been a coronavirus epidemic. Prior to this, mortality was elevated for nine weeks on account of the COVID-19 epidemic. During the first wave of the epidemic, 10 thousand people died for whom COVID-19 was the confirmed or suspected cause of death.
For week 44 and as at 3 November, the municipal health services (GGD) reported 285 confirmed COVID-19 deaths to the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), and 332 confirmed cases for week 43. The actual COVID-19-related death count in the Netherlands is likely to turn out higher because of the following reasons: possibly not all people with COVID-19 have themselves tested, there is no obligation to report COVID-19 deaths and registration sometimes takes a little longer.
Estimate
The figures for week 44 are estimates, based on 83 percent of the overall number of death records to be received by CBS. CBS will publish provisional weekly mortality figures for week 44 on Friday 13 November. The figures will be more complete by then.
