The average for 2022 based on 196 countries was 8.24 deaths per 1000 people. The highest value was in the Central African Republic: 55.13 deaths per 1000 people and the lowest value was in Qatar: 0.93 deaths per 1000 people. The indicator is available from 1960 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

Based on a comparison of coronavirus deaths in 210 countries relative to their population, Peru had the most losses to COVID-19 up until July 13, 2022. As of the same date, the virus had infected over 557.8 million people worldwide, and the number of deaths had totaled more than 6.3 million. Note, however, that COVID-19 test rates can vary per country. Additionally, big differences show up between countries when combining the number of deaths against confirmed COVID-19 cases. The source seemingly does not differentiate between "the Wuhan strain" (2019-nCOV) of COVID-19, "the Kent mutation" (B.1.1.7) that appeared in the UK in late 2020, the 2021 Delta variant (B.1.617.2) from India or the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) from South Africa.

The difficulties of death figures

This table aims to provide a complete picture on the topic, but it very much relies on data that has become more difficult to compare. As the coronavirus pandemic developed across the world, countries already used different methods to count fatalities, and they sometimes changed them during the course of the pandemic. On April 16, for example, the Chinese city of Wuhan added a 50 percent increase in their death figures to account for community deaths. These deaths occurred outside of hospitals and went unaccounted for so far. The state of New York did something similar two days before, revising their figures with 3,700 new deaths as they started to include “assumed” coronavirus victims. The United Kingdom started counting deaths in care homes and private households on April 29, adjusting their number with about 5,000 new deaths (which were corrected lowered again by the same amount on August 18). This makes an already difficult comparison even more difficult. Belgium, for example, counts suspected coronavirus deaths in their figures, whereas other countries have not done that (yet). This means two things. First, it could have a big impact on both current as well as future figures. On April 16 already, UK health experts stated that if their numbers were corrected for community deaths like in Wuhan, the UK number would change from 205 to “above 300”. This is exactly what happened two weeks later. Second, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly which countries already have “revised” numbers (like Belgium, Wuhan or New York) and which ones do not. One work-around could be to look at (freely accessible) timelines that track the reported daily increase of deaths in certain countries. Several of these are available on our platform, such as for Belgium, Italy and Sweden. A sudden large increase might be an indicator that the domestic sources changed their methodology.

Where are these numbers coming from?

The numbers shown here were collected by Johns Hopkins University, a source that manually checks the data with domestic health authorities. For the majority of countries, this is from national authorities. In some cases, like China, the United States, Canada or Australia, city reports or other various state authorities were consulted. In this statistic, these separately reported numbers were put together. For more information or other freely accessible content, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

In 2024, Myanmar had the highest crude death rate among the Southeast Asian countries, with *** deaths per thousand population. That year, Singapore had the lowest crude death rate, with *** deaths per thousand population.Factors that influence the death rateThe death rate, also called mortality rate, is generally influenced by various factors such as the social environment, diseases, health facilities and services as well as the food supply of the respective countries.

Dear Kaggler! This dataset consists of a main CSV file: Adult mortality rate (2019-2021).csv. This file has been processed, cleaned and prepared for your use. The dataset contains information on mortality rates in different countries of the world and some factors that may affect this rate for 2019-2023.

The data contains the following columns:

Countries: Country of study.

Continent: Continent location of the country.

Average_Pop(thousands people): Average population of the country under study for 2019-2021 in thousands.

Average_GDP(M$): Average GDP of the country under study for 2019-2021 in millions of dollars.

Average_GDP_per_capita: Average GDP per capita of the country under study for 2019-2021 in dollars.

Average_HEXP($): Health Expenditure Per Capita in the country under study in dollars.

Development_level: Level of development of the state under study (calculated by GDP per capita of the country). Please note that in this dataset we calculate this indicator only by calculating GDP per capita! Despite the fact that the United Nations (UN) does not have an unambiguous classification of countries into developed, developing and backward based on only one indicator, such as the amount of GDP per capita. It uses a wider range of economic, social and quality indicators to determine the level of development of countries.

AMR_female(per_1000_female_adults): Average mortality of adult women in the country under study (per 1000 adult women per year) for 2019-2023.

AMR_male(per_1000_male_adults): Average mortality of adult men in the country under study (per 1000 adult men per year) for 2019-2023.

Average_CDR: Average crude mortality rate for 2019–2021 in the country under study.

The dataset also contains additional files: Draft_AMR.csv, Draft_CDR.csv, Draft_Expenses.csv, Draft_GDP.csv, Draft_Population.csv. In fact, the main dataset consists of parts of these files. If you are interested in working more deeply on data cleaning and preparation, you can of course use these files. You can also use these files to create your own dataset. And be careful! Additional files may contain a different number of rows and columns with different names and data types. And of course these files are not cleaned. You will see not only the NaN values, but also other symbols in their place.

Enjoy your training, my dear Kaggler!

In 2023, there were approximately 750.5 deaths by all causes per 100,000 inhabitants in the United States. This statistic shows the death rate for all causes in the United States between 1950 and 2023. Causes of death in the U.S. Over the past decades, chronic conditions and non-communicable diseases have come to the forefront of health concerns and have contributed to major causes of death all over the globe. In 2022, the leading cause of death in the U.S. was heart disease, followed by cancer. However, the death rates for both heart disease and cancer have decreased in the U.S. over the past two decades. On the other hand, the number of deaths due to Alzheimer’s disease – which is strongly linked to cardiovascular disease- has increased by almost 141 percent between 2000 and 2021. Risk and lifestyle factors Lifestyle factors play a major role in cardiovascular health and the development of various diseases and conditions. Modifiable lifestyle factors that are known to reduce risk of both cancer and cardiovascular disease among people of all ages include smoking cessation, maintaining a healthy diet, and exercising regularly. An estimated two million new cases of cancer in the U.S. are expected in 2025.
