Results from Eurosurveillance study shows COVID-19 mortality attenuated during widespread Omicron transmission in Denmark, 2020 to 2022

The study's retrospective in-depth analysis of the COVID-19 mortality burden confirms an important shift in COVID-19 mortality following the emergence and spread of the Omicron variant from late 2021 onwards, with a markedly higher proportion of people estimated to have died with, rather than of, COVID-19 as compared with mortality patterns observed earlier in the COVID-19 pandemic.
