The forecasted neonatal mortality rate in China shows a steady decline from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 2.6 to 1.9 deaths per thousand live births. This trend reflects an annual average decrease (CAGR) of approximately 7% over the five-year period. As we are in 2024, these projections suggest a well-structured public health strategy aimed at improving neonatal care and healthcare infrastructure. The 2023 rate was higher but not specified here.

Future trends to watch for include:

Continued enhancements in maternal and neonatal healthcare access and quality.
