Fig. 4

Bar heights represent the total number of deaths of children under 5 within all second administrative-level units with corresponding U5MR. Bins are a width of 5 deaths per 1,000 live births. The colour of each bar represents the global region as defined by the subset legend map. As such, the sum of heights of all bars represents the total number of deaths across the 99 countries. a, Deaths of children under 5 in 2000. b, Deaths of children under 5 in 2017. The dotted line in the 2000 plot is the shape of the distribution in 2017, and the dotted line in the 2017 plot represents the distribution in 2000.
