VITALSTATISTICS

Vital statistics

Vital statistics are statistics on live births, deaths, fetal deaths, marriages and divorces. The most common way of collecting information on these events is through civil registration, an administrative system used by governments to record vital events which occur in their populations . Efforts to improve the quality of vital statistics will therefore be closely related to the development of civil registration systems in countries.
