Pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, stir global health and mortality patterns. This is likely to include trends in dying places. In this paper, we examine trends in place of death for adults in 32 countries, comparing the initial COVID-19 pandemic years (2020-2021) with the eight years before the pandemic (2012-2019). | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/115567 | ISSN: | 25895370 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.eclinm.2023.102399 | Rights: | openAccess |
