Figure 4. Probability of Dying in Specific Age Ranges in the Eight Americas.

Figure 4

(A) Probability of death by sex, age, and disease for the eight Americas in 2001.

(B) Probability of death by sex, age, and disease for Americas 1 and 8 compared to Japan, UK, the Russian Federation, and high-mortality countries in sub-Saharan Africa (AFR-high-mortality; made up largely of countries in West Africa and excluding countries with very high mortality due to HIV/AIDS) in 2001.

Results are not shown for ages 5–14 y because there are few deaths in this age range in the US.
