Comparing and Contrasting the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic in the European Union challenges the use of uncontextualised comparisons of COVID-19 cases and deaths in member states during the period when Europe was the epicentre of the pandemic. This timely study looks behind the headlines and the statistics to demonstrate the value for knowledge exchange and policy learning of comparisons that are founded on an in-depth understanding of key socio-demographic and public health indicators within their policy settings. The book adopts innovative, integrated, multi-disciplinary international perspectives to track and assess a fast-moving topical subject in an accessible format. It offers a template for analysing policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and for using evidence-based comparisons to inform and support policy development.

On 13 March 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO, 2020d) officially recognised Europe as the epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic. The media and politicians used information about absolute numbers of cases and deaths from the virus in European Union (EU) member states to construct league tables and to identify best policy practice for curbing the spread and severity of the pandemic. In combination, under-reporting, under-diagnosis and missing cases were known to create serious limitations for statisticians and data users, thereby undermining the value of comparisons made without reference to their sources or to the diverse socio-demographic, economic and political contexts within Europe (Hantrais, 2020b).

The starting point for this book was the decision to challenge the inappropriate and misleading use of comparisons of the impact of the pandemic in EU member states. The chapters look behind the headlines and statistics to demonstrate the value for knowledge exchange and policy learning of comparisons of COVID-19 cases and deaths founded on an in-depth understanding of key socio-demographic and public health indicators within their policy settings. Using evidence-based comparisons, the authors adopt multi-disciplinary international perspectives to track the progress of the pandemic across the EU and to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the policymaking process.
