dc.description.abstractTesting limitations and inadequate mortality surveillance systems complicate the analysis of data on the true burden of deaths associated with pandemics. One solution is to calculate excess mortality (EM). We described temporal trends in all–cause mortality at regional referral hospitals (RRHs) in Uganda and estimated EM during two years of the COVID19 pandemic compared with five years of historical data (2015–2019).
