Temperature-related indicators were the most common (27%, 29\/106), but many were repeated. Injury or illness indicators were more frequent than mortality indicators, with 59% (43\/73) and 37% (27\/73) respectively. Following breakdown of the categories into smaller, more specific outcomes, mortality from extreme weather events (n\u2009=\u200910) and illness due to zoonoses\/vector-borne diseases (n\u2009=\u20099) were the most prevalent indicators.
