pubmed:abstractText |
The Pacific Island countries are at different stages of the demographic and epidemiological transitions. The availability of accurate and current mortality data is of vital importance for priority setting in health. Available mortality data generally underestimate death rates among both children and adults. In many Pacific Island populations, little is reliably known about levels and causes of death, particularly among adults.
