This ecological analysis using the Eurostat database estimated that summer 2022 was associated with over 61,000 heat-related deaths across 35 countries in Europe, with the highest mortality rates in countries near the Mediterranean sea
. Addressing geographical inequalities in current and future vulnerability to heat will also need to be prioritized by national and European governments and agencies.
This study has some limitations worth acknowledging. First, we used weekly temperature and mortality data in the epidemiological models, which is expected to underestimate the heat-related mortality of the summer of 2022. The scientific question of characterizing the biases of epidemiological models applied to weekly temperature and mortality data was beyond the scope of the present work and it will be addressed in a follow-up study.
