Chart Details
Timeframe: 1990-2022
Country: Peru
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
Peru's death rate saw a steady decline from 7.2 in 1990 to 6.0 in 2019, reflecting sustained economic growth, improved healthcare access, and efforts to reduce child and maternal mortality. The decrease slowed in the 2000s as the healthcare system stabilized.

The rate spiked sharply to 8.0 in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, during which Peru recorded some of the world's highest excess death rates. By 2022, it reduced to 7.5, signaling recovery but highlighting the need for resilience in public health systems.
