“…Por otra parte, mediante los datos proporcionados por el Instituto de Medicina Legal de Málaga comparamos las tasas de suicidio entre habitantes del municipio de Antequera con la tasa de suicidio documentada por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE) porque, en el INE no estaba disponible la tasa de suicidio entre habitantes de Antequera. En cualquier caso, en un estudio reciente todavía no publicado se describe que la magnitud de las diferencias en la tasa de suicidio documentada por el Instituto de Medicina Legal de Málaga y el INE es del orden de 0,97 (± 0,10) 36 . Aunque pertinente, esta diferencia no afecta a los resultados del presente estudio.…”

“…7 The Giner and Guija article portrays this situation, given that when taking a closer look at the IML figures of the Spain group, they had to resort to a straight communication with the directors of the 33 different sites, out of which 15 provided incomplete data or did not provide any data at all. 1 In addition, the methodology used by the different sites to compile the data is unknown, and therefore the existence of possible differences therein both among sites and within one site among zones or periods also remains unknown. In our opinion, the recently set up Consejo Médico Forense [Forensic Medical Council] 10 could promote the development of information systems which facilitate IML health care and social projection.…”

“…Several studies show and analyze the differences between the official datum reported by the government and the real datum within the field of public health [4,5,6,7,8,9]. The difference between these two data was reported through different newspapers, not only in Peru but also in other 25 countries where at least more than 87,000 people have died during the coronavirus pandemic compared to the official datum [10].…”

Background: The SARS-CoV-2 virus which causes the COVID-19 disease is a large family of viruses that cause respiratory diseases and complications in human beings. Nowadays, the pandemic is studied by the rate of infection and mortality in different countries. Since there are discrepancies regarding the number of deaths due to the pandemic, our main goal is to estimate the number of deaths in Lima and Peru due to COVID-19. Methods: By using inference modeling techniques and statistical analysis in time series together with ARIMA-type predictions, it is possible to estimate the number of deaths caused by COVID-19. Our study took place in the city of Lima and Peru and our detailed analysis was carried out during March and April of 2020. Results: By comparing the death toll provided by the Ministry of Health (MINSA), we have obtained approximately a difference of 325.9% regarding the number of deaths due to COVID-19 in the city of Lima and a difference of 185.9% regarding the number of deaths in Peru. Conclusions: ARIMA time series modeling are a powerful statistical tool that predict and forecast data that are widely used in various fields of science, health, and economics. In this study, we have shown the discrepancy between the data reported by MINSA and the projection obtained in our ARIMA time series modeling. Therefore, we have a confidence level of 95% about the study that was carried out in March and April of 2020.
