World: total deaths
Situation as of 23 April 2023, World:
   Death toll: 6,915,286 or 0.90 percent of the infected cases.
   New reported deaths: 2,162.
   Total infection cases: 764,474,387 or 9.52 percent of the population.
   New infection cases: 438,577 or a new infection ratio of 5.46 per 100,000 people.

How many fatalities did Covid-19 actually cause? Official WHO data says close to 7 million at the present date. But a recently published WHO study estimates 14.83 million excess deaths globally, 2.74 times more deaths than the 5.42 million reported as due to COVID-19 for the period 2020-2021.

Our projection is obtained by a logistic regression based on the actual numbers provided by ECDC and by WHO. In those cases where significant bumps in the time series suggest a definite change of direction, we fitted the regression curve by means of a multi-logistic function.

The pandemic drive is losing steam after two years of havoc, since the World Health Organization (WHO) issued its official coming-into-being statement in March 2020. Although the WHO sourced data suggests a slowdown, our forecasts regretfully say that may not be exactly the case. The number of cases and of Covid-related fatalities may still grow significantly in the course of the next months. The game is not over yet.

Historians will endeavor to sort out in due course the real low-down of this episode with its gloomy implications – in excess of 600 million sick people and close to 7 million fatalities, not to mention the dire social and economic consequences. We will also have to learn from its grotesque contours. The disorder created by the health authorities during the first year of the disease; the ridiculous pose of political leaders, including Trump, Boris Johnson, Bolsonaro, Macron; or the total inability of the authorities to harmonize their action at the international level, notwithstanding the much-vaunted capabilities of the international coordination organizations.

To assess the seriousness of the pandemic situation, ECDC established the following benchmarks:

COVID-19 significant thresholds

 LEVEL 4
VERY HIGH
LEVEL 3
HIGH
LEVEL 2
MODERATE
LEVEL 1
LOW
Incidence Rate
(New reported cases over past 28 days per 100,000 population)
More than 500100-50050-99Fewer than 50

 

Note   ECDC has been areppim's provider of data on the pandemic until 20 June 2022, when it discontinued the data collection and publication of the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths worldwide. Thereafter, we reverted to WHO data series to pursue our monitoring of the poandemic. This change of source may render historical comparisons hazardous.
Starting from the week of 20 February 2023, the dashboard is updated by WHO once per week on Wednesdays.
