description Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. COVID-19 disease was initially discovered in Wuhan, China and now spread throughout the countries. Most people infected with the virus will develop mild to moderate respiratory problems and recover without the need for special treatment. However, some people will become severely ill and require medical treatment and can cause death. COVID-19 mortality rates nationwide are increasing day by day and growing concerns. On 13 December 2021, 5,325,079 deaths worldwide were recorded. Thus, this study is regarding the mortality rate of COVID-19 using univariate forecasting techniques. The data was retrieved from GitHub Our World in Data. Holt's method was selected as the best univariate model in order to forecast the mortality rate. Holt's method shows the lowest error measures. The predicted value of the mortality rate for COVID-19 is decreasing between 1 November 2021 to 31 January 2022.
