Abstract:
The report analyzes and compares data from various sources to judge mortality in Russia during the pandemic. Rosstat data on additional deaths are compared with the number of deaths of health care workers and with official data on the number of people infected and dying from COVID-19. The regions with the highest and lowest incremental death rates with the highest and lowest misinformation are identified. The attitudes of the population toward vaccination are shown. The situation of Russian hospitals is examined in detail. Demographic projections for men and women, constructed using the age-shifting method by coefficients in 2018 and 2020, are compared. If age-specific mortality rates remain the same as in 2020, there will be four million additional deaths in Russia over 25 years old until 2045. The actions of the authorities cannot be considered satisfactory.
