Yearly data from 2000 to 2021, from the World Bank.
Iraq's mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD between exact ages 30 and 70, female (%) was 19.6% in 2021, the latest year in the World Bank's World Development Indicators. That is down 1.5 percentage points from 21.1% in 2011.
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | 19.6% | 2021 |
| Five years earlier | 19.1% | 2016 |
| Ten years earlier | 21.1% | 2011 |
| Highest | 23.9% | 2000 |
| Lowest | 18.9% | 2017 |
| Average since 2012 | 19.5% | 2012–2021 |
| First recorded | 23.9% | 2000 |
Over five years it is up 0.5 percentage points from 19.1% in 2016. Since 2000 it is down 4.3 percentage points from 23.9% in 2000.
In 2021, Iraq's mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD between exact ages 30 and 70, female (%) rose 0.2 percentage points on 2020 (from 19.4% to 19.6%).
Across the 20 yearly changes before that (2001 to 2020), the average change was −0.23 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 0.22 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 1.9 standard deviations above that average, so it was larger than a typical year, though not out of the range seen before.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 0.4 percentage points in 2020 and the biggest yearly fall was 0.5 percentage points in 2013. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2012 to 2021 the straight-line trend is downward, about 0.13 percentage points a year. A straight line explains 43% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2021, Iraq had the 61st highest value of the 185 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.

Mortality from CVD, cancer, diabetes or CRD is the percent of 30-year-old-people who would die before their 70th birthday from any of cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory disease, assuming that s/he would experience current mortality rates at every age and s/he would not die from any other cause of death (e.g., injuries or HIV/AIDS).
Limitations: Due to changes in input data and methods, the revisions of the data are not comparable to previously published estimates. The current estimates for 2020 and 2021 are likely underestimated in countries where high-quality vital registration data was lacking at the time of GHE2021 production. This is because the modeled estimates cannot fully account for deaths from the four major NCDs indirectly attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the data for 2020 and 2021 should be interpreted with caution.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
