What the numbers say
In 2024, Haiti's survival to age 65, female (% of cohort) rose 0.22 percentage points on 2023 (from 71.88% to 72.1%).

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 30.79 percentage points in 2011 and the biggest yearly fall was 30.93 percentage points in 2010. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 0.33 percentage points a year. A straight line explains 32% of the movement over 10 observed years.
