Mortality rates by World Bank income group* and cause-of-death group, 2000 and 2011
Group I: Communicable, maternal, perinatal and nutritional conditions
Group II: Noncommunicable diseases
Group III: Injuries
* Countries are classified according to the World Bank income group for the year 2011 (World Bank list of economies, July 2012). Equatorial Guinea is classified as high income; it is kept here with upper middle income to avoid a regional grouping containing only one country and because its mortality profile is not dissimilar to neighbouring countries.
