Deaths: Mortality Rate and Death Rate

deaths: The mortality rate, or death rate, is a measure of the number of deaths in the population, typically indicated in units of deaths per 1,000 people over a specific time frame, according to Metro News. Related Immigrants could make up 30 per cent of population by 2036 Stats CanImmigrants' lower mortality rate translated into 42,700 fewer deaths overall and 18,400 fewer premature deaths during the study period from 2002 to 2012, the study said. According to the joint study by the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences and University of Toronto, immigrants had a much lower death rate than non-immigrants even if they happen to live in the most deprived areas in the province. We were surprised by the magnitude of the difference. Based on multiple population and demographic databases and the Ontario Registrar General's death files, as well as census results and immigration records, the study examined the mortality rates across the socioeconomic spectrum among immigrants, native-born Canadians and long-term residents who came here before 1985. It's big and substantial, said U of T epidemiologist Laura Rosella, the lead author of the research paper published in the latest issue of the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health.
