How to read this indicator
Life expectancy at birth summarizes age-specific mortality into one number. It estimates how many years a newborn would live if the mortality patterns observed in the period stayed the same. It is useful for comparing population trajectories, but it does not describe an individual future, quality of life, regional access to services or inequalities inside the country.
