Death counts and population estimates were used to calculate COVID-19 death rates for each population by sex for age groups 0-49 (a broad grouping since COVID- 19 mortality under the age of 50 years was relatively low for all considered populations), 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80-89, and 90+ years. keywords: age; covid-19; mortality; population; sex cache: aps-71.pdf plain text: aps-71.txt item: #48 of 70 id: aps-72 author: Loginova, Julia; Wohland , Pia title: How to create an interactive dashboard using R: the example of the Queensland COVID-19 tracker date: 2020 words: 2696 flesch: 50 summary: Abstract Background Interactive tools like data dashboards enable users both to view and interact with data. 3.

In tacit recognition of the interrelated nature of rural populations, land use and economy (see Brown & Argent 2016), a ‘desertification’ phenomenon was observed, where net population loss and demographic decline (e.g., loss of young cohorts, ‘left behind’ aged people) combined with public and private service withdrawals to effectively eviscerate the demographic, social and economic life of more remote regions and villages (Cawley 1994; Sorensen 1990). keywords: argent; australia; england; new; new england; north; north west; population; region; rural; west cache: aps-93.pdf plain text: aps-93.txt item: #67 of 70 id: aps-94 author: Irving, Jacob; Horne, Sandy; Beer, Andrew title: Long term population decline and the impacts of COVID-19 in South Australia’s regions date: 2021 words: 4562 flesch: 42 summary: Key messages • Population decline has been occurring in remote South Australia for a long time and this trend looks set to continue. • Structural ageing and the loss of employment are significant causes of population decline in regional South Australia.
