Gambia’s mortality rate declined from 81.1 in 1990 to 32.8 in 2022, underscoring the country’s health advancements. By 2000, the rate had fallen to 61.5, thanks to improved vaccination coverage and international health initiatives targeting preventable diseases.
Post-2000, the rate continued its steady decline, reaching 45.6 by 2010 and 32.8 by 2022. These gains reflect improvements in maternal and child health services and increased access to clean water. However, healthcare system limitations and economic challenges still impact health outcomes.
