Analysis of mortality based on the Human Mortality Database

This repo provides an analysis of the excess mortality in 2020 in most European countries. It contains the source code of both the scripts and the article, but not the data itself. There are two articles in this repo:

The scripts behind the article are:

Running the scripts

If you are interested in the scripts:

  • Create an account with the website https://www.mortality.org/. Create a file named passwords.R with the following content: hmd_username = "your@email.com" hmd_password = "******"

  • The script that downloads the data and processes them is generic.R. You need to set the current_country_hmd_code variable to a valid HMD country code before running this script.

  • The top-level script is all_countries.R
