Abstract
The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic had a significant impact on demographic trends in Latin America and the Caribbean. The global impact was clear in the 2022 revision of population estimates and projections, launched on 11 July 2022 on the occasion of World Population Day and prepared by the United Nations Population Division in conjunction with the Latin American and Caribbean Demographic Centre (CELADE)-Population Division of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) for the 20 countries of Latin America. The new revision is based on a novel methodology that uses annual rates for population estimates and projections (instead of five-year rates, as in the previous revision) (United Nations, 2022b). This allows the annualization of all fertility, mortality, migration and population indicators and, therefore, the evaluation of the demographic impact of the pandemic in the countries of the region
