On June 3, 2020, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said in Congress that the official death toll uses data transmitted by regional governments, and the collection of statistics complies with the rules of the World Health Organization (WHO).[1]

2017

One of the lowest birth rates in the EU: 8.4 births per 1,000 people

Even though Spain's population increased in 2017, the country's birth rate is among the lowest in Europe. Population growth is largely due to migration.

According to Eurostat, Spain was among the three countries in the European Union with the lowest birth rates.

There are 8.4 births per 1,000 inhabitants of Spain, the same as in Portugal. Statistics suggest that only Italy (7.6) and Greece (8.2) demonstrated lower indicators in the EU. The highest birth rates are recorded in Ireland (12.9), Sweden (11.5) and France (11.4). The average for the European Union is 9.9 births per 1000 people.

On the other hand, Spain is among the six EU member states with the lowest mortality rate: 9 deaths per 1000 population. Bulgaria (15.5), Latvia (14.8) and Lithuania (14.2) are leading in this indicator, and the average European coefficient is 10.3 deaths per 1000 inhabitants[2].

4,164 people missing

Spanish security forces are looking for 4,164 missing residents of the country, the country's news agencies reported in March 2017. 77% of them are men, mainly between the ages of 35 and 50. Barcelona, Las Palmas, Malaga, Madrid and Murcia account for most of the high-risk cases.

Interior Minister Juan Ignacio Soido made the relevant conclusions during the presentation of the first case study and the report prepared by representatives of search associations on the occasion of the Day of the Missing on March 9.

The analysis showed that out of 121,118 missing people reports received since 2010, 3.4% (4,164) remain in development to this day. Among them, 214 episodes are associated with increased risk. Despite the fact that two-thirds of the statements relate to the disappearance of minors, Soido noted that only 9.35% have a high degree of risk, since often such episodes are associated with family problems and the investigation sees no reason to activate special search protocols[3].

The leader in the number of statements about the disappearance of people was the province of Cadiz. However, most of the active search operations are in Barcelona, ​ ​ Las Palmas, Malaga, Madrid and Murcia. According to the minister, in order to more effectively combat this problem, a specialized national center should open in the coming months, the main task of which will be to control and manage the database of disappeared residents of the country and unidentified human remains.
