Age-standardised mortality rate per 100 000 population for the ten leading Level 3 causes of death globally, 2019–21

Whisker plot in which the y-axis represents the age-standardised mortality rate and the x-axis represents a selected cause-year. Causes are arranged from highest to lowest age-standardised mortality rate, with each cause assigned a distinct colour for identification. The whiskers represent the 95% uncertainty interval. COPD=chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. OPRM=other pandemic-related mortality.
