Chart Details
Data Source: World Development Indicators.
Timeframe: 1990-2022
Country: Lesotho
Published date: 2024
Note: The death rate, as defined by World Development Indicators, measures the number of deaths in a given population during a specific time period, usually expressed as deaths per 1,000 individuals per year.
Key Takeaways
Lesotho's death rate increased dramatically from 10.0 in 1990 to 20.6 in 2005 due to the devastating impact of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, which overwhelmed healthcare systems and reduced life expectancy. Public health interventions and international aid in the late 2000s began reversing this trend, with the rate declining to 12.9 by 2020.

The slight rise to 14.2 in 2021 reflects the additional burden of COVID-19, which compounded existing health challenges. The decline to 14.1 in 2022 suggests recovery, but Lesotho continues to face long-term health system challenges and a high disease burden.
