Stringency of the measures settled to fight pandemia, including lockdown, did not appear to be linked with death rate.Ĭonclusion: Countries that already experienced a stagnation or regression of life expectancy, with high income and NCD rates, had the highest price to pay. infectious diseases prevalence), economy (growth national product, financial support), and environment (temperature, ultra-violet index).

The national criteria most associated with death rate are life expectancy and its slowdown, public health context (metabolic and non-communicable diseases (NCD) burden vs. Results: Higher Covid death rates are observed in the latitude and in the longitude ranges. For countries that have not yet finished the first epidemic phase, a prospective model has been computed to provide options of death rates evolution. Data of all countries, or states in federal countries, showing at least 10 fatality cases, were retrieved from official public sites. Methods: We tested major indices from five domains (demography, public health, economy, politics, environment) and their potential associations with Covid-19 mortality during the first 8 months of 2020, through a Principal Component Analysis and a correlation matrix with a Pearson correlation test. We aimed at characterizing the non-viral parameters that were most associated with death rate. A common dynamics has been observed, but its propagation has not been homogeneous over each continent. 3CIMS, Hôtel-Dieu, Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, Paris, FranceĬontext: The human development territories have been severely constrained under the Covid-19 pandemic.2Centre de Recherche sur la Cognition Animale (CRCA), Centre de Biologie Intégrative (CBI Toulouse), Université de Toulouse, CNRS, UPS, Toulouse, France.
