This indicator contains detailed statistics of deaths according to age and cause. Unless otherwise indicated, the data are official national statistics in the sense that they have been transmitted to the World Health Organization (WHO) by the competent authorities of the countries concerned. The statistics are based on the concept of the underlying cause of death, defined as "the disease or injury which initiated the train of morbid events leading directly to death, or the circumstances of the accident or violence which produced the fatal injury" (Manual of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injuries and Causes of Death, Ninth Revision (1975). Geneva, WHO, 1977. (Vol. 1, p. 763).
