Figure 1 Declines in select communicable causes of death in India and China for children aged 5–14 years, 2005–16 China had substantially lower death rates from communicable causes so the y-axis scale is one third of the scale presented for India; in particular, death rates for malaria were very low in China so tuberculosis is shown instead. Death rates for the communicable causes considered in Brazil and Mexico were very low (appendix).
