Crude death rate per 1,000 people SP.DYN.CDRT.IN
Guinea's death rate was 8.7 in 2025, ranked 74th globally. This represents a 4.5% decrease from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1960–2025.
Overview
Guinea's death rate stood at 8.7 in 2025, a decline of +0.4 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 8.7 by 2025. Guinea ranked 74th globally.
Guinea’s death rate has fallen dramatically over the 65‑year series, declining from a peak of 28.23 in 1960 to a trough of 8.72 in 2025, which places the country at rank 74 globally. This reduction reflects sustained improvements in public health, vaccination coverage and access to basic medical services, as well as demographic shifts toward a younger population structure. The 2025 figure of 8.72 aligns closely with the rates observed in peer economies such as Canada (8.72) and Jamaica (8.70), underscoring the convergence of Guinea’s mortality outcomes with those of more developed or middle‑income nations. While the downward trajectory has been steady, future progress will depend on maintaining investments in health infrastructure, expanding disease‑prevention programs, and addressing emerging challenges such as non‑communicable diseases; continued policy focus could further lower the death rate in the coming decades.
