SI.POV.GINI ↗Estimated deaths before age five, per 1,000 live births
45.6 fewer deaths per 1,000 live births. These are period estimates, not the tracked outcomes of the same 1,000 children.
Official publication does not mean every cell is directly observed. These exports do not provide per-cell observation/estimate flags or uncertainty intervals. Missing values remain missing. A national average cannot determine one person’s life, and different survey years cannot be treated as a same-year ranking.
How statistics become a game →These game inputs lack per-indicator source years and imputation flags. Rankings compare game inputs with mixed or unknown years, not a same-year world ranking. Population, religion, destinations and hazards below also come from that snapshot.
Period life expectancy at birth, not an individual’s predetermined lifespan.
Probability of death before age five per 1,000 live births; not an annual probability.
Probability of death before the first birthday per 1,000 live births.
Maternal deaths per 100,000 live births, not only deaths during delivery or a woman’s lifetime risk.
Period total fertility rate, not a number of children assigned to every woman.
Expected years of schooling for a child of school-entry age, not current adults’ mean attainment.
Tertiary gross enrolment, including students outside the official age range. Can exceed 100%; not admission probability.
GDP per capita at PPP, not personal income. The original price and PPP reference bases are unverified.
Gini on a 0–1 scale. The original input does not identify an income or consumption survey basis.
Urban share of the population; national urban definitions can differ.
Agricultural employment as a share of employed people, not the whole population.
Internet users as a share of population; original reference year is unverified.
Women aged 20–24 married or in union before 18; not an annual child marriage probability.
Out-of-pocket share of total health expenditure, not a particular patient’s copayment rate.
HIV prevalence input. Original age/sex scope and year are unverified. Not a new infection probability.
Homicide rate input per 100,000 people; year and source coverage are unverified.
Road death rate input per 100,000 people; reference year is unverified.
Male smoking prevalence input; age scope and age standardization are unverified.
Average life evaluation input on a 0–10 ladder. Missing is not a score of zero.
