Abstract
Life expectancy (LE) is an objective and highly reliable marker for events affecting demography. Analysing LE changes during the Covid pandemic shows widely different situations in a sample of 29 countries, highlighting comparatively efficient management in most Western European countries, in contrast to catastrophic results in Eastern Europe and in the United States. Loss of LE is also inversely correlated with vaccination uptake, confirming the efficacy of vaccines at the population level.
