Title: Monitoring trends and differences in COVID-19 case fatality rates using decomposition methods: Contributions of age structure and age-specific fatality

    Snippet: We use the weighted expression and a mathematical decomposition approach introduced by Kitagawa [Kitagawa] to separate the difference between two CFRs into two distinct parts, one attributable to age-structure and another to age-specific case-fatality. The method attributes the total difference into these two components, leaving no residual. In other words, if we use and to index two different populations, then the decomposition approach splits t.....
