Here, using "entire" is confusing to me since "the entire country" must include in-hospital deaths. It is not possible that more deaths in a part of the country (in-hospital areas) than that in the entire country.
So I wonder whether it should be "more in-hospital deaths than had occurred in the rest of the country."
========================
5.Data from Australia are not compatible with government reports (too many cases for just five hospitals, more in-hospital deaths than had occurred in the entire country during the study period). Surgisphere (the data company) have since statedthis was an error of classificationof one hospital from Asia.This indicates the need for further error checking throughout thedatabase.
