Death rate?[edit]
It's not really the death rate of a population, is it? Otherwise there would be no need for the term mortality rate. —JakeybeanTALK 16:44, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- Not really / almost / possibly. In terms such as (deprecated template usage) infant mortality I think that it is the (deprecated template usage) number of such deaths in a population. SemperBlotto 16:52, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
- True, therefore I think death rate should maybe be replaced with number of deaths with a link to mortality rate —JakeybeanTALK 16:59, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
