“…The study cannot examine the reasons for the hotspots found in the analysis directly, but could provide possible interpretations. Some regional hotspots in the first wave of infections are attributed to specific super-spreading events, such as indoor public large-scale events (Brandl et al 2021, Streeck et al 2020. There have also been outbreaks in nursing homes across Germany in 2020, resulting in many COVID-19 related deaths (Kohl et al 2021, Wieland 2020.…”

In order to quantify the impact of the SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 pandemic, several studies have estimated excess mortality rather than infections or COVID-19-related deaths. The current study investigates excess mortality in Germany in 2020 at a small-scale spatial level (400 counties) and under consideration of demographic changes. Mortality is operationalized using standardized mortality ratios (SMRs), visualized on maps, and analyzed descriptively. Regional mortality and COVID- 19-related morbidity are tested for spatial dependence by the Moran's I index. It is, furthermore, tested whether all-cause mortality is associated with COVID-19-related morbidity by correlation coefficients. Excess mortality only occurrs in a minority of counties. There are large regional disparities of all-cause mortality and COVID-19-related morbidity. In older age groups, both indicators show spatial dependence. (Excess) mortality in older age groups is impacted by COVID-19, but this association is not found for young and middle sge groups.
