The Changing Death Rate in Brazil from 1990 to 2022

In Brazil, the death rate remained relatively stable during the early 1990s, hovering around 7.0-7.2. From 1995 to 2005, it slightly declined, reaching 6.1 in 2005, reflecting the country’s efforts to address healthcare and nutrition. However, the most notable trend came in the 2020s, when a significant rise in death rates occurred, peaking at 8.3 in 2021. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, Brazil’s overall death rate still reflects the nation’s advancements in public health and life expectancy improvements since the 1990s.
