In the __________, the death rate declined from nearly 30 deaths per thousand people in 1950 to less than 15 since 1990. poorest countries far east richest countries near east

Respuesta :

I would say that this statistic probably refers to the richest countries where the standard of living is higher than poor countries and if it was infant mortality then more modern health facilities and access to them would be a strong factor hopefully better in the countries with a higher standard of living. On the other hand, Cuba has an infant mortality of 4.76 deaths per 1000 live births compared to 5.90 for the US so is a testament to the success of their social system.
