Summary
In an interview with the newspaper Público and Rádio Renascença, Rita Sá Machado said that it will be necessary to wait to realize the impact of the latest heat wave, but that the data until July 6 points to values lower than initially predicted. Following this survey, between 22 and 28 June, the peak heat wave in several countries has already been recorded by the national health institutes of seven countries (Germany, France, Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Luxembourg), indicating that the total number will "probably increase" as more statistical data emerge. In Portugal, the Director General of Health indicated last week that the last two heat waves caused 123 excess deaths, a value below the forecasts of the National Institute of Health Doctor Ricardo Jorge (Insa).
Furthermore, At least 12,000 excess deaths were recorded in Europe during the peak of the exceptional heat wave recorded in June, according to a compilation of available national data by the French news agency AFP. Provisional data from the European Mortality Monitoring platform (EuroMOMO) – based on official reports from 24 countries representing almost 400 million inhabitants – also indicate a significant increase during the last week of June, with 14,260 excess deaths. These figures should be added 2,200 heat wave deaths in England and Wales, according to estimates published by the UK Met Office for the longer period from 18 to 28 June.
In addition, In France, more than 2,000 additional deaths were recorded in the 26th week compared to the previous week, according to the French Public Health.
