The estimated number of deaths in the last week of November (week 47, i.e. 22 to 28 November inclusive) stands at nearly 4,100. This is almost 1,100 more than expected. There was excess mortality in each week of November, with a total of around 3,500 more deaths than expected for this month. The province of Limburg saw relatively the highest excess mortality. Statistics Netherlands (CBS) reports this based on the latest provisional weekly mortality figures.

The mortality figures for November cover the past four weeks, i.e. weeks 44 through 47 (1 to 28 November 2021 inclusive). Mortality in this period was above the expected level and also outside the range of usual fluctuations, resulting in excess mortality in each week. On average, there were nearly 900 more deaths per week than expected in November, versus 350 excess deaths per week in October.

In week 47, the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) registered 256 COVID-19 deaths (as at 30 November); for the entire month of November (weeks 44 through 47), the number stood at 912.

* Provisional figures. Week 47 in 2021 is an estimate.

Higher mortality among long-term care users

In week 47, mortality was well above the expected levels, both among people receiving care under the Long-term Care Act (Wlz) - including residents of nursing homes and institutions for the disabled - and among the rest of the population. There was excess mortality. Around 1,650 long-term care recipients passed away in that week, 550 more than expected. Among the rest of the population, there were nearly 2,450 deaths in week 47; 550 more than expected.

Throughout November, mortality in both groups was higher than the expected level. Among long-term care users, there were over 1,650 more deaths than expected for this period; among the rest of the population, there were nearly 1,850 more deaths.

COVID-19 mortality known up to July inclusive

The figures on (excess) mortality are based on reports on the number of deaths received daily from the municipalities by CBS. These reports do not contain any information about the cause of death. CBS receives such information at a later stage via death cause certificates. The cause of death is known for all deceased persons up to and including July 2021. According to these figures, 31,573 people died of COVID-19 between March 2020 and July 2021, as published by CBS on 1 December.

Data sources for RIVM

To date, RIVM has registered 19,412 COVID-19 deaths, of which 6,225 were recorded up to July 2021 inclusive (as at 30 November 2021). RIVM receives data on confirmed COVID-19 deaths from the municipal health services (GGD) around the country on a daily basis. The actual COVID-19-related death count in the Netherlands is higher than these estimates for the following reasons: it is possible that not all people with COVID-19 have themselves tested, there is no reporting obligation for COVID-19 and registration sometimes takes a little longer.

Estimate for week 47

The figures for week 47 are estimates, based on 82 percent of the overall number of death records to be received by CBS. CBS will publish provisional weekly mortality figures for week 47 on Friday 10 December. The figures will be more complete by then.
