ABSTRACT
Many countries suffered excess all-cause mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to identify factors associated with excess mortality rates (EMR) in partaking countries during 2020. Weekly all-cause death counts for 2015-2020 were extracted from national databases for Australia, Austria, Brazil, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, France, Georgia, Israel, Italy, Mauritius, Norway, Peru, Slovenia, Sweden, USA, Ukraine and UK. EMR per 100,000 population were gauged using a 5-year mean baseline. Separate OLS multiple linear regressions explored pre-pandemic country profiles including healthcare system, geographic, socio-economic and population factors. Feature selection methods detected the main factors contributing to 2020 EMR. The health system model showed that an extra nurse per 1,000 and a 1% increase in Healthcare Access and Quality Index reduces EMR by 41.7% (p = 0.019) and 0.48% (p = 0.034). The model was statistically significant (R
