Assume a country of 100,000 people.   In a given year, 10,000 babies are born.  That would be 10,000 births per 100,000 people per year.\nBreak it down to 10,000/100,000 = 10/1000 or 10 births per 1000 people per year

I don't know, but the infant mortality is 100% in both cases.

I would say Africa has a high death rate because they are always at war and also have high numbers of people with HIV and AIDS.

Socialism is causing massive death, poverty, AIDS and slavery in the third world.  Because they have chosen to embrace marxist values, they are doomed.  This process is well underway, especially in africa and haiti.

Of course.  If you look at the raw data, however, without thinking about it logically, it would be easy to conclude cancer deaths are increasing.  This is because so many people are not dying of cholera, dysentry, measles, mumps & infuenza nowadays that many of us live long enough to develop various cancers.

ZAMBIA\n\nOver 70 percent of Zambians live in poverty. Per capita annual incomes are currently at about one-half their levels at independence and, at $395, place the country among the world's poorest nations. Social indicators continue to decline, particularly in measurements of life expectancy at birth (about 37 years) and maternal mortality (729 per 100,000 pregnancies). The country's rate of economic growth cannot support rapid population growth or the strain which HIV/AIDS related issues (i.e., rising medical costs, decline in worker productivity) place on government resources. Zambia is also one of Sub-Saharan Africa's most highly urbanized countries. Almost one-half of the country's 10 million people are concentrated in a few urban zones strung along the major transportation corridors, while rural areas are underpopulated. Unemployment and underemployment are serious problems.

There was a WHO report on tropical diseases in 2004 that might be helpful:\n\n\nTropical disease death statistics by worldwide region: \n\nAbout 56,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in Africa 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 16,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in The Americas 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 36,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in South East Asia 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 15,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in Eastern Mediterranean 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 5,000 deaths in Western Pacific 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004)\n\n\nAlso, here are some statistics on yaws in southeast asia from the WHO web site:\n\nAbout 5,000 cases are reported annually, 4,000 in Indonesia, 1,000 in Timor-Leste and a few cases in India.\n\nThere is a lot on yaws on the WHO web site. I am not sure if it lists deaths due to yaws anywhere, however. What if you contacted the WHO and asked?\n\n----------------\n\nHere is another little bit of information from another site:\n\n"In 7157 West Indian cases treated in various hospitals there were only 185 deaths, a mortality of 25.8 per thousand (Nicholls)."\n\nfrom third reference.\n\n--------------------\n\nIn the early 50s, there were 25-100 million cases per year, world wide (from 4th reference).\n\n------------------------\n\nIndonesia reported 11414 cases of yaws in 1982 (5th reference)\n\n-----------------------\n\nthere were 17609 cases of yaws reported in the solomon islands in 2001 (6th reference)\n\n-----------------\n\nI am not sure if this is on the internet, to be honest. Or if it is, it might be in an obscure place.
