Analyzing and Monitoring the Early Spread of COVID-19: A Demographic Perspective
Ugofilippo Basellini, Diego Alburez-Gutierrez, Emilio Zagheni; in Collaboration with Marco Bonetti (Bocconi University, Milan, Italy), Carlo Giovanni Camarda (French National Institute for Demographic Studies, Paris, France)
In this project, we analyze and monitor the initial spread of COVID-19 and propose new methods to estimate excess mortality. The goal is to provide researchers and policy makers alike with insights into and real-time information on the evolution of the pandemic. Detailed Description
Covid-19 in Italy

Covid-19 mortality rates in Italian regions by epidemic onset
Start date of the epidemic by region (left-hand panel) and smoothed Covid-19 log mortality rates over time (right-hand panels): Italy, late February to mid-July 2020. Regions with earlier epidemic outbreaks show on average higher levels of Covid-19 mortality than regions with later outbreaks. © Basellini and Camarda (2022)
