    Document: The public, media, and government health agencies anxiously desire to know the possible mortality burden of COVID-19. However, the complex simulation models that estimate mortality outcomes require numerous assumptions and, perhaps more importantly, are inaccessible to most. [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] In contrast, our approach utilizes public data published daily by the WHO and population-level clinical data that countries already collect. 17 Our approach can be readily applied to other countries and will directly account for differences in the age distribution of populations, which is integral for calculating an accurate mortality burden as infected older adults may be more likely to die than infected middle-aged adults from COVID-19.
