I don’t know if any research has been conducted on the correlation between excess deaths and population density.

The emerging picture of excess deaths is that they are highest in those countries that fared badly at reducing the spread of the virus through unvaccinated populations and it seems inevitable to me that higher population densities would favour faster spread. The UK was poor at reducing spread, but is highly vaccinated.

Countries like NZ which was very successful at reducing spread and then quickly vaccinated its population fared best, for reasons that are obvious to me.
