Mortality from Covid-19 is monitored in detail and compared between countries with different strategies against the virus There is, however, often a lack of understanding of what is required in terms of measures and interpretation to enable correct comparisons The number of deaths from Covid-19 is affected by the testing strategy and many other things that differ between countries Therefore, today, the most reliable source for monitoring and comparing mortality from Covid-19 is total mortality In Sweden, there is good correspondence of Covid-19 deaths and total mortality, with a tendency to a higher total mortality indicating some under-reporting of Covid-19 mortality
