ПНЕВМОНИИ И COVID-19: АНАЛИЗ ЗАБОЛЕВАЕМОСТИ И СМЕРТНОСТИ

Abstract

Significance. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Russian Federation, the incidence of pneumonia has been growing. Among the subjects of Siberia, the highest mortality from COVID-19 was registered in the Irkutsk and Omsk regions; from pneumonia - in the Altai Territory and Tomsk Region [6]. Purpose. To study incidence of pneumonia and COVID-19 and mortality from these causes. Material and methods. State statistical forms for registering cases and deaths in the Irkutsk region for 2005-2021 were used. Significance of differences in indicators was assessed by 95% CI, the calculation of predictive indicators was carried out using regression equations. Results. Increase in the incidence of pneumonia and COVID-19 was identified in 2021 compared to 2020. The incidence of pneumonia was significantly higher among the elderly, while the incidence of COVID-19 was higher among the working age population. The mortality rate from COVID-19 in people over 18 years exceeded the one in total population 1.3 times, and in children - 200 times. The mortality of men over 60 from both causes under study is significantly higher than in women. According to the forecast, in 2022, pneumonia incidence and mortality rates will continue to rise. Conclusion. To reduce incidence and mortality from pneumonia and COVID-19 in population, it is necessary to achieve a high level of herd immunity against bacterial and viral infections through vaccination.
