Figure 3. Excess deaths during influenza and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and infection-fatality rate for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, the Netherlands. Excess deaths, reported COVID-19 deaths, and ratio between the 2 items (weeks 1–25, 2020). Black lines indicates excess deaths, gray line indicates COVID-19 reported deaths, and blue line indicates the ratio. Excess deaths were estimated with deaths reported within 3 weeks (and thus not yet available for week 24–25). The ratio for week 11 was 14.5, during the second (and final) week of the mixed influenza and COVID-19 epidemic.
