__**DEATH RATE**__


 * Is the average annual number of deaths during a year per 1,000 population at midyear


 * It is also known as crude death rate.


 * The death rate is only a rough indicator of the mortality situation in a country but it accurately indicates the current mortality impact on population growth.


 * Affected by age distribution, most countries will eventually show a rise in the overall death rate, in spite of continued decline in mortality at all ages, as declining fertility results in an aging population.

In China's case it is : 7.06 deaths/1,000 population
