Fig. 2: Monthly excess mortality rates from 1st April 2020 to 30th April 2022.
From: Impact of COVID-19 on mortality in coastal Kenya: a longitudinal open cohort study
Calculated as (observed deaths—expected deaths)/person-years of observation. The excess mortality rate for all ages above infancy (age ≥1 year) is the weighted average of the age-specific rates. The weights are the proportion of each age group in the Kilifi HDSS population. The grey bands represent the 95% prediction intervals computed as the range from the 5th and 95th percentiles of 100 model simulations.
