This chapter first provides an overview on the behaviour of some epidemiological indicators. Next, it deals with the overall mortality that occurred in the study period on the basis of data provided by the National Statistics Institute and compares it with what may be called usual or expected mortality. Finally, the information published by the National Statistics Institute on estimated excess mortality is considered on a weekly basis. The reader should not seek to draw conclusions by comparing the three aspects included in this chapter as the statistical information comes from different sources and each of these has its own methodology.
