Overview

Uzbekistan’s death rate has fallen sharply from an all‑time peak of 15.38 per 1,000 people in 1960 to a trough of 5.93 in 2018, reflecting sustained improvements in health care, nutrition and disease prevention over the 65‑year series. The latest World Bank estimate for 2025 records a rate of 6.22, placing the country at rank 159 globally and aligning it closely with peers such as the Dominican Republic (6.21) and Costa Rica (6.25). The modest rise from the 2018 low suggests a slight deceleration in mortality decline, likely linked to an ageing population and emerging non‑communicable disease burdens. Continued investment in primary health services, chronic disease management and elderly care could reinforce the downward trajectory, while any setbacks in these areas might cause the rate to plateau or increase.
