unit_of_measure: Deaths per 1,000 live births in the 5-year period before the survey
linearized_input: Trends in early childhood mortality rates | Deaths per 1,000 live births in the 5-year period before the survey | (2012 TjDHS, Neonatal mortality, 19) (2017 TjDHS, Neonatal mortality, 30) (2012 TjDHS, Infant mortality, 34) (2017 TjDHS, Infant mortality, 27) (2012 TjDHS, Under-5 mortality, 43) (2017 TjDHS, Under-5 mortality, 33)
table_text: Overall, under-5 mortality declined between the 2012 and 2017 TjDHS surveys, from 43 deaths per 1,000 live births to 33 deaths per 1,000 live births. Infant mortality decreased from 34 to 27 deaths per 1,000 live births over the same period, while neonatal mortality fell from 19 to 13 deaths per 1,000 live births
target: Overall, under-5 mortality declined between the 2012 and 2017 TjDHS surveys, from 43 deaths per 1,000 live births to 33 deaths per 1,000 live births.
