| Résumé : | Life expectancy in Slovakia grew rapidly in the decade before the COVID-19 pandemic, but it fell markedly between 2019 and 2021, before rebounding to 77.2 years in 2022 - 3.5 years below the EU average. During the period of 2020-22, excess mortality was high, averaging 20 % above the pre-pandemic level. Alongside COVID-19, the main causes of death in 2020 and 2021 were circulatory system diseases and cancer. Almost half of all deaths in Slovakia in 2019 were associated with behavioural risk factors, including dietary risks, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption and low levels of physical activity. Tobacco smoking and obesity rates among adults are higher than the EU averages. As in most EU countries, the prevalence of behavioural risk factors in Slovakia tends to be higher among people with the lowest levels of education and income. |
