The influenza mortality rate among females in Japan is projected to rise from 1.41 thousand in 2024 to 1.69 thousand in 2028. This forecast reflects a consistent year-on-year increase in female deaths due to influenza. Compared to the actual data from 2023, these projections indicate an upward trend, with a steady annual growth rate over the next five years. The average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of this period suggests a moderate escalation in influenza-related fatalities.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Emergence of new influenza strains and their impact on mortality rates.
- Effectiveness of ongoing vaccination programs and public health policies.
- Demographic changes, particularly the aging population, which could influence vulnerability to influenza.
