Statistical study. Evaluation of variables associated with COVID-19 mortality in the EU.
A multiple regression analysis is performed for the countries of the European Union.
Health expenditure, public health measures and the number of physicians influence the total number of deaths. The more physicians, the lower the number of deaths. However, the number of beds or the Human Development Index are not determinants of the number of deaths.
A greater number of medical professionals will improve health care and reduce the number of deaths.
本文旨在分析医生总数、可用床位和公共医疗保健支出等健康变量是否会影响死亡人数。还分析了其他变量(如人类发展指数和公共卫生措施)的影响。
统计研究。评估欧盟与 COVID-19 死亡率相关的变量。
对欧盟国家进行多元回归分析。
医疗支出、公共卫生措施和医生人数影响总死亡人数。医生越多,死亡人数就越低。然而,病床数量或人类发展指数不是死亡人数的决定因素。
更多的医疗专业人员将改善医疗保健并降低死亡人数。
