Malaria Mortality (P. falciparum), 2004

2004, as MAP’s 2025 release gives it · stored as published, never rewritten

Malaria mortality is the number of deaths from falciparum malaria per 100,000 people each year. The figures are modelled by the Malaria Atlas Project from its estimates of how many people fall ill, not counted from death registers, which in the worst-affected countries record only a fraction of deaths.

Malaria Mortality (P. falciparum), 2004 covers 96 countries on 3 measures. Burkina Faso is highest, at 264.304761; Iraq is lowest, at 0.000000. The middle country reads 8.295975. Against 2003, 95 values changed (31 up, 64 down), 1 country joined, 1 left.

04Caveats

Read before you use

How values are stored

  • One year of the 2025 release

    Every year in this series comes from MAP’s 2025 release, recalculated on one method, so a change from one year to the next is not a revision. It can differ from what was first published for 2004.

  • Nothing missing

    Every one of the 96 countries has every column.
