Abstract
Opinion: a record numbers of death notices were posted to the RIP.ie website in April 2020 for many counties. RTE Brainstorm 7/05/2020
Excess mortality has become a potent indicator of the deadliness of Covid-19, especially against the background of mixed reporting benchmarks and standards between countries. In the Republic of Ireland, it looks like we're not doing too badly nationally by this metric. However, this belies the geographic disparities revealed by that staple of Irish life: the death notices.
