This page contains data entry 1777 from the Axioma AXP content repository. The structured data below represents the complete record for this entry.

Tomorrow will mark three years since the WHO [declared Covid-19 to be a pandemic.](https://www.who.int/europe/emergencies/situations/covid-19)

Due to variations in methodology and the prevalence of testing, it has been [difficult to compare straight Covid mortality rates](https://www.who.int/news-room/commentaries/detail/estimating-mortality-from-covid-19) between countries, but a strong case has been made that comparing [*excess mortality*](https://ourworldindata.org/excess-mortality-covid) (total deaths above expected) is [a good way to assess how different countries handled the pandemic.](https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/07/excess-deaths-mortality-coronavirus-covid-19/)

[This page has an interactive chart to show excess mortality](https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/excess-mortality-p-scores-projected-baseline) by country as a percentage difference. In order to make [this chart,](https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/excess-mortality-p-scores-projected-baseline?time=2021-01-01..2023-01-01&country=USA~SWE~NZL~ISR~ITA~BRA~KOR~TWN) I set it up to show a two-year period from 2021 through 2022, (under the reasoning that countries had [learned a decent amount about how to treat Covid by then and vaccines were being rolled out,](https://www.healthline.com/health-news/heres-exactly-where-were-at-with-vaccines-and-treatments-for-covid-19#Monoclonal-antibodies)) and I selected the following group of countries based on their varied approaches to Covid policy: Brazil, Israel, Italy, New Zealand, South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, and the United States. Others visitors may select different parameters.

Based on comparisons of excess mortality between countries, what, if anything, can we tell about which policies worked and which ones failed? If some jurisdictions performed markedly better or worse than others, can those differences be attributed to specific policy choices? What did we collectively learn from this pandemic that can help policymakers prepare for a future one?
