There was heterogeneity in the median age of all-cause deaths in Peru during different waves of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Before predominance of the Omicron variant, the median age of deaths was lower than normal during the peaks of daily all-cause mortality. However, this increased above normal when the Omicron variant was predominant. The daily patterns of cause-specific deaths related directly and indirectly to COVID-19 in Peru were also investigated. Most excess deaths indirectly related to COVID-19 were caused primarily by diseases of the circulatory system, possibly due to disruption of medical services, and the majority of excess deaths directly related to COVID-19 were caused primarily by COVID-19 and diseases of the respiratory system.
在2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行的不同阶段，秘鲁全因死亡的年龄中位数存在异质性。在奥密克戎变异株占主导之前，每日全因死亡率峰值期间的死亡年龄中位数低于正常水平。然而，当奥密克戎变异株占主导时，这一数字高于正常水平。秘鲁还对与COVID-19直接和间接相关的特定原因死亡的每日模式进行了调查。大多数与COVID-19间接相关的超额死亡主要由循环系统疾病导致，这可能是由于医疗服务中断所致，而大多数与COVID-19直接相关的超额死亡主要由COVID-19和呼吸系统疾病导致。
