Project Tycho datasets contain case counts for reported disease conditions for countries around the world. The Project Tycho data curation team extracts these case counts from various reputable sources, typically from national or international health authorities, such as the US Centers for Disease Control or the World Health Organization. These original data sources include both open- and restricted-access sources. For restricted-access sources, the Project Tycho team has obtained permission for redistribution from data contributors. All datasets contain case count data that are identical to counts published in the original source and no counts have been modified in any way by the Project Tycho team, except for aggregation of individual case count data into daily counts when that was the best data available for a disease and location. The Project Tycho team has pre-processed datasets by adding new variables, such as standard disease and location identifiers, that improve data interpretability. We also formatted the data into a standard data format. All geographic locations at the country and admin1 level have been represented at the same geographic level as in the data source, provided an ISO code or codes could be identified, unless the data source specifies that the location is listed at an inaccurate geographical level. For more information about decisions made by the curation team, recommended data processing steps, and the data sources used, please see the README that is included in the dataset download ZIP file.

The number of inbound tourist arrivals from Russia to Cyprus experienced a tenfold decline in 2022 over the previous year. After dropping sharply with the onset of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, inbound arrivals from Russia to Cyprus first bounced back in 2021, then decreased again dramatically in 2022, most likely due to the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war. Overall, Cyprus reported around 52 thousand arrivals from Russia in 2022.

The number of outbound tourist departures from Cyprus increased slightly in 2021 over the previous year, but remained significantly below the figures reported before the impact of COVID-19. While outbound departures from Cyprus peaked at 1.58 million in 2019, they totaled around 510,000 in 2021.

As of January 18, 2023, Portugal had the highest COVID-19 vaccination rate in Europe having administered 272.78 doses per 100 people in the country, while Malta had administered 258.49 doses per 100. The UK was the first country in Europe to approve the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine for widespread use and began inoculations on December 8, 2020, and so far have administered 224.04 doses per 100. At the latest data, Belgium had carried out 253.89 doses of vaccines per 100 population. Russia became the first country in the world to authorize a vaccine - named Sputnik V - for use in the fight against COVID-19 in August 2020. As of August 4, 2022, Russia had administered 127.3 doses per 100 people in the country.

The seven-day rate of cases across Europe shows an ongoing perspective of which countries are worst affected by the virus relative to their population. For further information about the coronavirus pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

According to a survey conducted in the United Kingdom (UK) in April 2022, 4.13 percent of all people aged between 35 and 49 years reported to be suffering from long COVID symptoms, the highest share across all age groups. Furthermore, around 3.7 percent of the population aged 50 to 69 years were estimated to suffer from long COVID. Overall, around 863 thousand people in the UK reported their ability to undertake daily activities and routines was affected a little by long COVID symptoms.

Present state of COVID-19 As of May 2022, over 22 million COVID-19 cases had been reported in the UK. The largest surge of cases was noted over the winter period 2021/22. The incidence of cases in the county since the pandemic began stood at around 32,624 per 100,000 population. Cyprus had the highest incidence of COVID-19 cases among its population in Europe at 75,798 per 100,000 people, followed by a rate of 51,573 in Iceland. Over 175 thousand COVID-19 deaths have been reported in the UK. The deadliest day on record was January 20, 2021, when 1,820 deaths were recorded. In the UK, a COVID-19 death is defined as a person who died within 28 days of a positive test.

Preventing long COVID through vaccination According to the WHO, being fully vaccinated alongside a significant proportion of the population also vaccinated is the best way to avoid the spread of COVID-19 or serious symptoms associated with the virus. It is therefore regarded that receiving a vaccine course as well as subsequent booster vaccines limits the chance of developing long COVID symptoms. As of April 27, 2022, around 53.2 million first doses, 49.7 million second doses, and 39.2 booster doses had been administered in the UK.

Revenue in the Travel Agencies industry is expected to contract at a compound annual rate of 9.1% over the five years through 2024 to €86 billion. The main driver of this drop is the plunge in travel demand during 2020 and 2021, when COVID-19 outbreak grounded flights and confined people to their homes. While domestic travel could continue in some countries, most travel agencies had no trips to sell. Since restrictions were lifted across Europe and globally (which happened at each country’s own pace), the travel sector has seen a resurgence in demand in a trend characterised as revenge travel, with people making up for lost time by taking more trips since COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted. International travel to Europe has also resurged, especially from the US, thanks to the more favourable dollar-to-Europe rate – a welcome trend for agencies. Pent-up demand combined with savings built up during COVID-19 has kept bookings high, defying high inflation across Europe that would usually signal lower trip spending. As a result, revenue is expected to mount by 0.6% in 2024. That being said, the Russia-Ukraine war has plagued tourism in Eastern Europe, with countries like Finland and the Baltic states continuing to record much lower tourist numbers than pre-pandemic because of fewer Russian tourists and lower travel confidence to the region. Revenue is anticipated to climb at a compound annual rate of 4% in the five years through 2029 to €104.6 billion. Online travel agencies will continue to cement their position in the industry as a disruptive force, with most traditional agencies adapting by now or already closed. Climate change will disrupt travel agencies and the destination packages they offer. 2023 already saw wildfires across Greece that spelt disaster for many trips and travel agencies will need to plan for the shift from southern European beaches to northern European destinations as temperatures rise. Travel agencies across Europe will also keep trying to carve out more of a niche by specialising in trips for certain age demographics.
