Infant Mortality Rate (Burundi vs. Norway, 2019–2023)


The graph displays infant mortality rates for Burundi and Norway across five years. Burundi
consistently records a high infant mortality rate, ranging from about 31.5 to 35 per 1,000 live
births between 2019 and 2023. Norway’s rate remains extremely low and steady during the
same period, between 1.8 and 2.2 deaths per 1,000 live births.

The significant difference in infant mortality rates can be attributed to disparities in


healthcare access, maternal and child nutrition, sanitation availability, and immunization
coverage. Norway implements comprehensive public health and medical services, resulting in
lower rates. Burundi's rates reflect limited healthcare infrastructure and resources.

Life Expectancy (Burundi vs. Norway, 2018–2022)


The life expectancy graph compares Burundi and Norway from 2018 to 2022. Norway’s
estimated total life expectancy is stable, rising slightly from about 83.6 years to 84 years.
Burundi’s life expectancy, in contrast, ranges from approximately 61.6 years for males to
around 64 years overall, showing minimal change over the period.

Higher life expectancy in Norway correlates with factors such as advanced healthcare
systems, higher income levels, and effective disease prevention. Burundi’s lower life
expectancy results from higher rates of infectious diseases, inadequate healthcare, and
elevated infant and maternal mortality.
