Comment(s)

• In September 2019 the age-standardized values for 2017 were corrected, so that deviations from previously displayed values are possible.
• Reporting year 2019: Two federal states published different data at the regional level for reasons of confidentiality. Therefore there may be slight discrepancies between the regional publications and the data published here.

Refresh period of data

• The table was extended by the year 2022 on 15 Nov 2023.
  Information for a new reporting period will be added as soon as it is available.
