Whatever official numbers may be worth: either Germans underreport their AEs by at least a factor of 2 or Norwegians are suffering silently much higher AE rates
Your calculations are correct. And probably, true AE rates are much higher both in Norway and in Germany. For the latter, around 3 million AE-type events have been reported to the health insurance companies. If the physician can get money for the visit, he should also report it to the PEI, shouldn't he?
Two additional remarks:
- Classical fun fact: "ehrlich" means "honest" in German.
- I spent last week in the Netherlands, including visits to Den Haag and Rotterdam, crowded metro and all. During the whole week, I counted around ten masked people. Some of them Asians, some probably fellow German tourists.

I'd also think that AEs are underreported in both countries (and elsewhere).
I just found it weird that they'd differ so much…
P.S.: I saw one (!) person with a mask yesterday, but she looked conspicuously out-of-area (i.e., an Asian tourist perhaps?).
Time for Courts and Tribunals!! Time to denounce and complaints! Time for Jail and refunds!
But in the meantime Watch this!! Love this guy!
