According to the World Health Organization (WHO), from the start of the pandemic until the end of 2021, there were approximately 1.02 million excess deaths related to COVID-19 in Indonesia.

With a 95% confidence interval, the WHO estimates that excess deaths related to COVID-19 in Indonesia ranged between 750,700 and 1.28 million during the same period.

The WHO defines excess deaths as deaths caused directly or indirectly by COVID-19.

Indirect COVID-19-related deaths occurred because people could not access healthcare services, which were overwhelmed by pandemic management.

The estimated number of excess deaths in Indonesia is approximately seven times higher than the number of confirmed COVID-19 deaths reported by the government during the same period.

According to BBC analysis, this ratio is the fourth highest among countries that have reported more than 10,000 COVID-19 deaths.

Egypt recorded the highest ratio, with excess deaths recorded at 11.6 times higher than the number of deaths confirmed by the local government.
