Data for 2015

Mortality Rate, Ages 5–14, 2015

2015, as UN IGME’s 2025 release gives it · stored as published, never rewritten

This is the chance that a child who has reached five dies before fifteen, out of every thousand. Deaths at these ages are far rarer than in early childhood — injuries, drowning, infectious disease and, where it strikes, war — and this measure picks up where under-five mortality stops.

Mortality Rate, Ages 5–14, 2015 covers 200 countries on 3 measures. South Sudan is highest, at 80.9677; Luxembourg is lowest, at 0.4853. The middle country reads 3.2574. Against 2014, 200 values changed (24 up, 176 down), the same countries are covered.

How values are stored

  • One year of the 2025 release

    Every year in this series comes from UN IGME’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 2015.

  • Nothing missing

    Every one of the 200 countries has every column.
