Huh, this suggests that decreases in infant mortality are stagnating or at least slowing down in low and middle income countries. But that doesn’t seem correct due to the pandemic. I wonder what a regional view would look like. With high debt burdens I get the feeling that many countries will likely struggle to deal with this. Especially with what the pandemic did to their credit ratings.
Its actually kinda sad that middle and low income countries are so far behind high income countries 34 years ago.
Its great to see that the mortality rate in low and middle income countries have significantly lowered as time passed, but it’s interesting to see that the change in mortality rate in high income countries didn’t see change as drastic as the lower income ones.
I think you should include the definition of infant mortality. Is it “death between 1 day and 1 year of age”?
I’m not sure why you put axis labels and key in the title. Why not use axis labels and key?
