Owing to the special provision of new data from the Swedish authorities, we have access to data on all recorded COVID-19 deaths in Sweden up to May 7, 2020 linked to high-quality and accurate individual-level background data from administrative registers. Here, we examine how the risk of death varies across fundamental sociodemographic characteristics, including age, sex, civil status, individual disposable income, region of residence, and country of birth. Table 1 shows an increasing risk of dying from COVID-19 by increasing age, as well as excess mortality for men, widowed, primary educated, those with low income, those from highincome countries (HIC), and those living in Stockholm county. Among individuals in working ages, as compared to retirees, males experience even higher mortality relative to females, and education and income are stronger predictors of dying from COVID-19. ./cache/cord-328810-ifovibzi.txt ./txt/cord-328810-ifovibzi.txt
