Monthly Analysis of Infant Mortality Rate in Portugal during the COVID-19 Pande...
Nogueira, Paulo Jorge; Camarinha, Catarina; Feteira-Santos, Rodrigo; Costa, Andreia Silva; Nobre, Miguel de Araújo; Nicolau, Leonor BacelarIntroduction: The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted global public health. Infant mortality rate (IMR), a vital statistic and key indicator of a population's overall health, is essential for developing effective health prevention programs. Existing evidence primarily indicates a decrease in IMR during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted a national-level analysis to calculate IMR and describe its course ov...
