Analiza umrljivosti starostnikov v Sloveniji zaradi virusa covid-19 : diplomsko delo

Brezovar, Monika (author), Lozar Manfreda, Katja (mentor), Polajnar, Emil (comentor)

Diplomsko delo obravnava umrljivost starostnikov v Sloveniji zaradi virusa covid-19. Bolezen covid-19 se je konec leta 2019 pojavila na Kitajskem, nato pa razširila po svetu. 11. marca 2020 je Svetovna zdravstvena organizacija razglasila pandemijo. Ugotovili so, da najbolj ranljive skupine med drugim predstavljajo starostniki od 65 let dalje, ki so bolj dovzetni za okužbo in težji potek bolezni. Žal pa je merjenje umrljivosti zaradi virusa covid-19 zahtevno. Zato v diplomskem delu analiziramo umrljivost starostnikov v Sloveniji zaradi virusa covid-19, in sicer z izračunom presežne umrljivosti. To nato primerjamo s podatki Nacionalnega inštituta za zdravje. Med podatki Nacionalnega inštituta za zdravje in izračunano presežno umrljivostjo prihaja do odstopanj. V diplomskem delu podajamo razloge, zakaj lahko prihaja do odstopanj.

• Title: Analysis of the mortality of the elderly in Slovenia due to the covid-19 virus

Abstract

In this thesis we study the mortality of the elderly in Slovenia due to the Covid-19 disease. The Covid-19 disease appeared in China at the end of 2019 and then spread worldwide. The World Health Organization declared a pandemic on the 11th of March 2020. It was established that elderly people, aged 65 or more, presented one of the most vulnerable groups of people and were more susceptible to infection and a more severe course of the disease. However, measuring mortality due to the covid-19 disease presents some difficulties. Therefore, the thesis focuses on analysing the mortality of the elderly in Slovenia due to the covid-19 disease. This is done by calculating the excess mortality. The results are later compared with the data from the Slovenian National Institute of Health and some discrepancies occur between the data from the National Institute of Health and the calculated excess mortality. In the thesis reasons for the discrepancies are discussed (OpenAI ChatGPT, 2024, 29.08.).
