How to read this diagram
Deaths during the first 28 completed days of life per 1,000 live births, both sexes. Eleven annual positions; shared linear axis 0–30 Deaths per 1,000 live births. Editorial country selection: United States, China, India, Germany, Brazil, South Africa. Prefer this stated comparison group; require at least two present observations per panel, then use reporting-code order for any remaining places. Missing observations break lines. No interpolation, smoothing, individual rescaling or indexed growth.
196 of 196 retained reporting economies have values in 2024; coverage is not a complete world ranking. Highest does not imply best.
Estimated mortality rates include uncertainty; the source note retains original displayed intervals.
This is a population statistic, not individual clinical guidance.
New source vintages may revise historical estimates.
Source notes and numeric strings remain unchanged in downloads. The latest retained reporting year can differ across datasets.
This is an editorial comparison group, not a world ranking. The table retains all annual positions, including missing data.
