Morbidity vs. Mortality. Morbidity refers to the unhealthy state of an individual, while mortality refers to the state of being mortal. Both concepts can be applied at the individual level or across a population. For example, a morbidity rate looks at the incidence of a disease across a population and/or geographic location during a single year.
Demography: geographic study of population. Natural increase: births minus deaths in a given population. Crude birth rate (CBR or natality): number of live births per year per 1,000 people. Crude death rate (CDR): number of deaths per year per 1,000 people. Mortality: There are two useful ways to measure mortality; infant mortality rate and life expectancy. The IMR reflect a countrys health care system and life expectancy measures the average number of years a baby can expect to live.
