    Snippet: In summary, we note that the countries included in this study are in different stages of the COVID-19 epidemic. We conjecture that as the epidemic evolves the relative number of deaths at age 80 and above may decline. The differences in the agepatterns of COVID-19 deaths are not only dependent on the age-structure of a given population, but also on other country-specific factors. A better grasp of these is crucial to gain a greater understanding .....
