covid-19 portal 6,927,365 (updated 13 may 2023) confirmed covid-induced deaths have been reported worldwide. as of january 2023, taking into account likely covid induced deaths via excess deaths, the 95% confidence interval suggests the pandemic to have caused between 16 and 28.2 million deaths. for the latest daily updates of cases, deaths, and death rates see covid-19 pandemic death rates by

covid-19 deaths and death rates per 100,000 population according to the who study a december 2022 who study comprehensively estimated excess deaths from the pandemic during 2020 and 2021, concluding ~14.8 million excess early deaths occurred, reaffirming their prior calculations from may as well as updating them, addressing criticisms. these numbers do not include measures like years of potential life lost, far exceeding the 5.42 million officially reported deaths for that timeframe, may make the pandemic 2021's leading cause of death, and are similar to the ~18 million estimated by another study (see below). in october 2020, a group of scientists, including those from the imperial college covid-19 response team, published an analysis of the all-cause mortality effect of the first wave of the covid-19 pandemic for 21 industrialised countries – including its timing, demographics and excess deaths per capita – and assessed determinants for substantial variations in death rates such as the countries' pandemic preparedness and management. an analysis published in the lancet in march 2022 by wang et al. suggests up to 18 million lives may have been lost to the pandemic. such deaths also include, for example, deaths due to healthcare capacity constraints and priorities, as well as reluctance to seek care (to avoid possible infection). further research may help distinguish the proportions directly caused by covid-19 from those caused by indirect consequences of the pandemic. excess deaths relative to expected deaths (the patterns indicate the quality of the all-cause
