德国2026年4月初至7月19日期间因高温导致的死亡人数估计达9,800人,创下过去十年最高纪录1。这一数字超过了2018年约9,000人的年度死亡人数1。根据罗伯特·科赫研究所的统计,该机构通过与往年同期死亡数据对比来估算热相关死亡1。
今年6月中下旬的强烈热浪造成了最严重的人员伤亡。在6月22日至28日期间,死亡人数比上年同期高32%,其中至少5,100例死亡归因于热浪1。当时德国部分地区气温接近42摄氏度1。欧盟哥白尼气候服务称2026年6月是西欧有记录以来最热的6月1。
从年龄分布来看,老年人群体首当其冲。75岁及以上人群占估计死亡人数的7,900人,其中85岁及以上为5,420人1。相比之下,65岁以下的死亡人数约为630人1。
Germany has experienced a severe mortality crisis driven by extreme heat, with estimated heat-related deaths reaching approximately 9,800 between early April and July 19, 2026 1. This figure represents the highest annual toll recorded over the past decade, surpassing the previous record of around 9,000 deaths in 2018 1. The Robert Koch Institute calculated these figures by comparing current death data against historical patterns from the same periods in previous years 1.
The deadliest period occurred during a particularly intense heat wave in late June, when deaths from June 22 to 28 exceeded the same week in the prior year by 32 percent 1. At least 5,100 deaths were attributed to the heat wave during this interval 1. Temperatures in some regions approached 42 degrees Celsius (107.6 degrees Fahrenheit) 1. According to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Service, June 2026 marked the hottest June on record for Western Europe 1.
Older adults bore the heaviest burden of excess mortality. Among the estimated heat-related deaths, approximately 7,900 were individuals aged 75 and above, with those 85 and older accounting for 5,420 deaths 1. In contrast, approximately 630 deaths occurred among those under 65 years old 1.
