Under-5 Mortality in Equatorial Guinea

What this means

Compare modelled under-five mortality rates across countries.

Higher modelled under-five mortality; lower modelled under-five mortality.

Methodology & source

Values are World Bank World Development Indicators SH.DYN.MORT: under-five mortality rate, deaths per 1,000 live births. The figure is a modelled UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (UN IGME) estimate — the probability per 1,000 that a newborn will die before reaching age five if subject to the age-specific mortality rates of that year. It is not a count of registered child deaths, a survey point estimate, infant mortality, neonatal mortality, a healthcare-quality score, or a composite health index. WDI republishes the IGME point estimate only; uncertainty intervals are not included. UN IGME Levels and Trends in Child Mortality 2025 treats 2024 as an estimate; 2025 and later scenario projections are omitted. OurBlueDot does not interpolate, fill missing years, replace missing values with zero, or add projections. Country rows are joined by ISO 3166-1 alpha-3; regional and income aggregates are excluded. Map ranks are comparable-sample competition ranks among currently loaded countries (rank 1 is the highest mortality). Lower values are more favorable. Missing countries remain without a value.

World Bank World Development Indicators SH.DYN.MORT: under-five mortality rate, deaths per 1,000 live births. The value is a modelled UN IGME estimate: the probability per 1,000 that a newborn will die before reaching age five if subject to the age-specific mortality rates of that year. It is not a count of registered child deaths, a survey point estimate, infant mortality, neonatal mortality, a healthcare-quality score, or a composite health index. WDI republishes the UN IGME point estimate only; uncertainty intervals are not included and are not invented here. UN IGME Levels and Trends in Child Mortality 2025 treats 2024 as an estimate. WDI does not return 2025 or later country series for this indicator; IGME scenario projections through 2030 are not imported. OurBlueDot does not interpolate, fill missing years, replace missing values with zero, or add projections. Rows are country and economy series joined by ISO 3166-1 alpha-3; World Bank regional and income aggregates are excluded. Territories outside UN-193 are not added to the country registry. 192 of 193 UN members have a finite value in every advertised year 2010-2024. Liechtenstein has no published value and remains without a rank.
