Thailand's death rate rose gradually from 5.6 in 1990 to 7.1 in 2019, driven by demographic aging and increasing prevalence of chronic diseases. The spike to 7.9 in 2021 reflects the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted healthcare systems and increased mortality.
By 2022, the death rate declined to 7.5, signaling recovery. However, the long-term upward trend indicates the ongoing health challenges of an aging population and lifestyle-related diseases.
