Dr Avinash Supe, a member of the Covid death audit committee, said a drop of death from infectious diseases and trauma is expected, but a heart attack and death from cancer cannot disappear; Factors such as certification, death at home need to be carefully seen.
The hospital has seen a decline in heart events in the first few months of pandemic because of a combination of factors and partly because fear will come to the hospital, said cardiology from Brian Pinto.
The normalized numbers when everything starts open.
Data showed death in Mumbai rose 22.7% by 2020 during the previous year, and most of them were linked – like in previous years – for ‘other diseases’.

Shripad Banavali, Director, Academics, at Memorial Tata Hospital said about the death of around 15% in pre-pandemic time which dropped to 11.4% in the first pandemic year.
“Many patients cannot be investigated and some of the missing treatments.
Mumbai gets an external patient, which is issued a death certificate here if they die.
Because of the kuncian, many can come, which is underlined by a decrease in registration in the hospital,” he said.
The 8% increase in the death of kidney failure in 2020 has shocked Dr.
Shorrerang Bichu, Head of Nephrology at the Bombay Hospital.
