Key Takeaways
Portugal's death rate hovered around 10.0 throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, reflecting stability in public health. From 2015, the rate rose gradually, peaking at 12.0 in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic, which disproportionately affected older populations.

By 2022, the rate declined slightly to 11.9, indicating recovery efforts. However, the aging demographic in Portugal continues to influence higher mortality rates, emphasizing the need for targeted healthcare measures.
