Este trabajo muestra que en varias olas la mortalidad fue más alta que la inglesa, lo que indica que el riesgo dependió del momento y del acceso a vacunas y atención. Para alguien de acá, sirve para entender que la pandemia golpeó distinto según dónde se vivía, y que las estadísticas oficiales de otros países no siempre explican lo que pasó en el propio. Un dato así se pierde fácil si nadie lo mira.","quienFirma":"Universidad de las Indias Occidentales (UWI) y colaboradores","confianza":"preprint","consulta":null},"sello":{"hash":"0d91be9de136b28e1db54a3cc6df2d68ac2438a246ab70de4013192016d3e905","sello":"43e66751486e831fc01cf73a1d0396b811b95e569633a4c180e5c9d3a826289e","beacon":{"drand":{"cadena":"8990e7a9aaed2ffed73dbd7092123d6f289930540d7651336225dc172e51b2ce","ronda":6586735,"aleatorio":"d652840fb123328052c3030159166310d2cc2c3a7fbda704f6b84204deba9384","tiempo":"2026-10-26T16:44:30.000Z"},"nist":{"cadena":2,"pulso":2000561,"salida":"92BFEF28BAC2624F31453300FB5A36A052C23007805C3D408BFF1C806F7A59ED220625D284E153B6009649B8250F544E883A7C10F29CB2756BB3E5CCE4B3B698","tiempo":"2026-10-26T16:44:00.000Z"},"noAntes":"2026-10-26T16:44:30.000Z"},"verificacion":{"drand":true,"nist":true},"tsa":{"time":"Oct 26 16:45:04 2026 GMT","provider":"freetsa.org","sobre":"sello"},"original":{"titulo":"COVID-19 mortality in six Caribbean countries during Four Waves of the COVID-19 Pandemic","descripcion":"Background: Mortality associated with COVID-19 in the Caribbean during specific waves and exposure to different variants has not well described, especially for the six most populous English-speaking countries (Bahamas, Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and St. Lucia), compared to the United Kingdom (UK). Methods: The first four waves of the pandemic, cases and deaths were estimated from epidemiologic curves on Johns Hopkins University Coronavirus Resource Center for the countries of interest from 10-Mar-20 to 12-Aug-22. Crude mortality rates (CMR), case fatality ratios (CFR) and standardized mortality ratios (SMR) were calculated using England as the standard population.
