Andalusia, with a total number of 8.6 million inhabitants, ranked first on the list of most populous autonomous communities in Spain as of January 1st, 2025. The least populated regions of Spain were the two autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, both with a population of under 90,000 inhabitants that year. The population of Spain has been increasing for many years after experiencing a downward trend between 2012 and 2015, and is projected to grow by nearly half a million by 2027. The population of Spain is dying more than being born Spain has one of the lowest fertility rate in the European Union, with barely 1.29 children per woman. According to the most recent data, more people died in Spain than were being born in 2023, with figures reaching over 434,000 deaths versus 320,000 newborns. Immigration countered this trend One of the key points to balance out this population downtrend in Spain is immigration. Spain’s immigration figures finally started to pick up in 2015 after a downward trend that presumably initiated after the 2008 financial crisis. Nevertheless, Spaniards still migrate is much larger numbers than before the crisis. According to the latest data, nationals aged between 25 and 34 years represented the largest bulk of emigrants.

As of May 24, 2023, the share of the Spanish population fully vaccinated against COVID-19 reached 85.7 percent, while 87 percent of the population had received at least one dose of the vaccine. The regions with the highest share of population vaccinated against COVID-19 in the country were Asturias and Galicia.

BackgroundMutations in the TGM1 gene encoding transglutaminase 1 are a major cause of autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis. In the Galician (NW Spain) population, three mutations, c.2278C>T, c.1223_1227delACAC and c.984+1G>A, were observed at high frequency, representing ∼46%, ∼21% and ∼13% of all TGM1 gene mutations, respectively. Moreover, these mutations were reported only once outside of Galicia, pointing to the existence of historical episodes of local severe genetic drift in this region. Methodology/Principal FindingsIn order to determine whether these mutations were inherited from a common ancestor in the Galician population, and to estimate the number of generations since their initial appearance, we carried out a haplotype-based analysis by way of genotyping 21 SNPs within and flanking the TGM1 gene and 10 flanking polymorphic microsatellite markers spanning a region of 12 Mb. Two linkage disequilibrium based methods were used to estimate the time to the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA), while a Bayesian-based procedure was used to estimate the age of the two mutations. Haplotype reconstruction from unphased genotypes of all members of the affected pedigrees indicated that all carriers for each of the two mutations harbored the same haplotypes, indicating common ancestry. Conclusions/SignificanceIn good agreement with the documentation record and the census, both mutations arose between 2,800–2,900 years ago (y.a.), but their TMRCA was in the range 600–1,290 y.a., pointing to the existence of historical bottlenecks in the region followed by population growth. This demographic scenario finds further support on a Bayesian Coalescent Analysis based on TGM1 haplotypes that allowed estimating the occurrence of a dramatic reduction of effective population size around 900–4,500 y.a. (95% highest posterior density) followed by exponential growth.

The number of COVID-19 cases per 100 thousand population in Spain was highest in Navarre. As of March 29, 2022, over 35 thousand infections per 100 thousand population had been recorded in the region. Catalonia, one of the Spanish communities with the highest number of cases reported around 31 thousand infections per 100 thousand people.

The outbreak in Spain Since Spain confirmed its first COVID-19 case in La Gomera, Canary Islands, authorities have reported more than 102 thousand deaths as a result of complications stemming from the disease, with Catalonia accounting for the largest amount. As of March 30, 2022, around 11.55 million cases had been recorded in the European country.

Immunization in Spain As of March 23, 2022, around 88 percent of the population in Spain had received at least one dose of a vaccine against COVID-19. Moreover, approximately 86 percent were already fully vaccinated and close to 52 percent had received a booster. By December 20, 2021 the number of pre-ordered doses of COVID-19 vaccines in the country amounted to 264 million, more than half of which were produced by Pfizer/BioNTech.

In the Iberian Peninsula, which includes mainly Spain and Portugal, large genomic rearrangements (LGRs) of BRCA1 and BRCA2 have respectively been found in up to 2.33% and 8.4% of families with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (HBOC) that lack point mutations and small indels. In Galicia (Northwest Spain), the spectrum and frequency of BRCA1/BRCA2 point mutations differs from the rest of the Iberian populations. However, to date there are no Galician frequency reports of BRCA1/BRCA2 LGRs. Here we used multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) to screen 651 Galician index cases (out of the 830 individuals referred for genetic analysis) without point mutations or small indels. We identified three different BRCA1 LGRs in four families. Two of them have been previously classified as pathogenic LGRs: the complete deletion of BRCA1 (identified in two unrelated families) and the deletion of exons 1 to 13. We also identified the duplication of exons 1 and 2 that is a LGR with unknown pathogenicity. Determination of the breakpoints of the BRCA1 LGRs using CNV/SNP arrays and sequencing identified them as NG_005905.2:g.70536_180359del, NG_005905.2:g.90012_97270dup, and NC_000017.10:g.41230935_41399840delinsAluSx1, respectively; previous observations of BRCA1 exon1-24del, exon1-2dup, and exon1-13del LGRs have not characterized them in such detail. All the BRCA1 LGRs arose from unequal homologous recombination events involving Alu elements. We also detected, by sequencing, one BRCA2 LGR, the Portuguese founder mutation c.156_157insAluYa5. The low frequency of BRCA1 LGRs within BRCA1 mutation carriers in Galicia (2.34%, 95% CI: 0.61–7.22) seems to differ from the Spanish population (9.93%, 95% CI: 6.76–14.27, P-value = 0.013) and from the rest of the Iberian population (9.76%, 95% CI: 6.69–13.94, P-value = 0.014).

Road barrier effect is among the foremost negative impacts of roads on wildlife. Knowledge of the factors responsible for the road barrier effect is crucial to understand and predict species’ responses to roads, and to improve mitigation measures in the context of management and conservation. We built a set of hypothesis aiming to infer the most probable cause of road barrier effect (traffic effect or road surface avoidance), while controlling for the potentially confounding effects road width, traffic volume and road age. The wood mouse Apodemus sylvaticus was used as a model species of small and forest-dwelling mammals, which are more likely to be affected by gaps in cover such as those resulting from road construction. We confront genetic patterns from opposite and same roadsides from samples of three highways and used computer simulations to infer migration rates between opposite roadsides. Genetic patterns from 302 samples (ca. 100 per highway) suggest that the highway barrier effect for wood mouse is due to road surface avoidance. However, from the simulations we estimated a migration rate of about 5% between opposite roadsides, indicating that some limited gene flow across highways does occur. To reduce highway impact on population genetic diversity and structure, possible mitigation measures could include retrofitting of culverts and underpasses to increase their attractiveness and facilitate their use by wood mice and other species, and setting aside roadside strips without vegetation removal to facilitate establishment and dispersal of small mammals.

In 2023, Asturias, Castilla and León, and Galicia were the Autonomous Communities that reported more than a quarter of their population aged 65 or over. The regions with the lowest reported percentage of elderly people were the Autonomous Communities of Ceuta and Melilla, with **** and **** percent, respectively.

The Structural Household Survey (SHS) is an annual statistical activity aimed at Galician households in order to obtain information on their socioeconomic characteristics. It consists of two parts: a first one of a general nature that is repeated every year, designed to collect information on basic variables, and a second one of a specific nature. In 2018, one of the specific modules aims to evaluate the use and extension of new technologies in the Galician population.

We evaluate the role of community bonds in the long-term transmission of political values. At the end of WWII, Poland’s borders shifted westward, and the population from the historical region of Galicia (now partly in Ukraine) was displaced to the territory that Poland acquired from Germany. In a quasi-random process some migrants settled in their new villages as a majority group, preserving communal ties, while others ended up in the minority. We leverage this natural experiment of history by surveying the descendants of these Galician migrants. Our research design provides an important empirical test for the theorized effect of communities on long-term value transmission, enabling us to separate the influence of family and community as two competing and complementary mechanisms. We find that respondents in Galicia-majority settlements are today more likely to embrace values associated with Austrian imperial rule and are more similar to respondents whose families avoided displacement.
