The forecast for Germany's infant mortality rate indicates a steady decline from 2.7 deaths per thousand live births in 2024 to 2.4 in 2028. As we reached 2023, the rate was likely close to 2.8, showing a continuous year-on-year percentage decrease. Over five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a gradual reduction in infant mortality, emphasizing Germany’s improving health systems and preventive care measures.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in prenatal and postnatal care, increased access to healthcare services, and the potential effects of public health policies aimed at reducing risk factors associated with infant mortality.
