I work with Ukrainians. They reported more than superficial lockdowns (e.g. public transport shut down), multiple times, in Kiev. Also, death count numbers from an event like this are not likely to be stable for several years.
That being said, I recall there were some pretty different mortality rates, by country, early in the pandemic (France, for instance)
- ArkanExplorer 5y agoI am Ukrainian. There were some superficial lockdowns for a few weeks across 2020. Supermarkets and hardware stores still operated during that time without limits. People still held private parties and you could attend bars and restaurants in speakeasy mode. I know because I did all of these things, as did many politicians. The statistics are already available, in Ukrainian: https://www.bbc.com/ukrainian/features-56260505 https://www.bbc.com/ukrainian/features-56260505 2020: 616,000 died. 2019: 581,000. 6% increase. This mortality rate is still actually lower than in 2014 - 2010.
