Something to note about Sweden (where I'm from) is that any death where the virus was confirmed present at time of death, is entered as a Covid death, along with any other causes of death, so the same person may appear multiple times in the official mortality registry.

Say for instance someone dying of heart failure while also having liver cirrhosis, and while carrying the virus; that would be entered once in each category if the physician declaring the person dead thought it a significant contributor to death.

So looking in one registry will yield about 16 000 dead (virus present/suspected), while another will show about 8 900 (virus and infection confirmed as cause of death/significantly contributing factor) and yet another might show even fewer if the cause of death is put as Covid infection resulting in loss of life, with no known comorbidities.

So one really needs to dig into multiple files, databases and such from several agencies, and a lot of the information is classified for the public due to doctor/patient confidentiality, and if you have that kind of access you are only allowed to share information with formally appointed researchers.
