The years 2020 and 2021 were characterized by the covid-19 pandemic. The trueimpact of the pandemic on populations health and life has still to becompletely discerned. Objective difficulties to account deaths due to covid-19,determined the risk of underestimating such impact, hence official mortalitydata started to be examined. The main objective of this work is to discern thetrue impact of covid-19 in EU during the crucial years 2020 and 2021. Themortality trends, already increasing in EU in pre-pandemic years, are modelled.The excess mortality attributable to covid-19, on yearly basis, is estimatedvia a novel strategy combining datasets from different official sources.Considering demographic and geographic factors, new indexes are formulated,which allow rankings of EU countries, and socio-political and economicreflections. The new indexes here formulated provide a different perspective tosee the relative impact of the pandemic in EU. This work, also in line with theconclusions of previously published authoritative papers on demographic studiesof excess mortality, represents an original methodology, which timelyimplemented, can be at the service of public decision makers for futureemerging needs.
