This website shows time trends in mortality rates. The rates are for particular places, ages and causes of death — and you can choose which. To begin, click one of the graphs at right.

Countries

Detailed graphs are available for 40 countries, including the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Germany, & the Netherlands (in order of recent visitor traffic).

Mortality rates

Most mortality rates were calculated using data published by the World Health Organization (WHO). WHO is not, however, responsible for any of this website's content.
