Age-Specific Mortality Rate
Our findings are the same like other countries in the world. The older you are, the
more severe the disease you will get. Based on our data, those who were below 50
years old, mortality rate is less than 1%. For those who were aged 50 to 59 years old,
the mortality rate is 1.87% and aged 60 to 69 years old, the mortality rate is 5.28%. If
you look at those above 80 years old, the mortality rate contributed to about 22% of
our data and aged 70 to 79 years old contributed to about 12% of the mortality.
