A statistical model to identify excess mortality in Italy in the period 2011-2022

Antonino Bella, Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista +7

Excess mortality is defined as an increase in the number of deaths above what is expected based on historical trends, hereafter called baseline. In a previous paper, we introduced…
