*per 100,000 persons, age-standardised (old European Standard): the rates, specific to each age group, are adjusted based on the proportion of a chosen (imaginary) "standard population" within those age brackets. Next, these adjusted rates are combined across all age groups. The resulting age-standardized rate reflects the number of new cases or deaths per 100,000 individuals in a population with the identical age distribution as the selected standard population.
