Mortality Transition

Mortality Transition refers to the gradual changes in patterns of death and health within a population over time. This typically involves a shift from high mortality rates due to infectious diseases and poor healthcare to lower rates as a society develops. Improvements in nutrition, sanitation, and medical care lead to longer life expectancies and a rise in chronic diseases associated with aging. Understanding this concept helps us analyze how advancements impact health outcomes and life stability, illustrating the relationship between economic development and public health trends in different regions of the world.
