"The alarm has been sounded about COVID-19’s hidden impact as new data shows
that the highest number of people have died in the March quarter of 2022 than
in any of the past 41 years.
Australian Bureau of Statistics population data published on Wednesday shows an
18 per cent increase in deaths in the quarter compared with the same period a
year earlier, rising from 39,100 to 46,200 deaths.
It is the first time that more than 40,000 deaths were recorded over four
consecutive quarters.
South-western Sydney Labor MP Dr Mike Freelander, Chair of the Senate inquiry
into long COVID, said he was “very concerned” about higher-than-normal deaths
in the pandemic and that more research was needed to ascertain why."
