Mortality from communicable diseases (per 100,000 population) is provided by the Government Digital Service under an OGL-UK-3.0 license. The dataset is available in CSV format via the eu_open_data platform. Specific details on temporal coverage, geography, and data volume are not provided in the available metadata.

Use Cases

• Modeling disease burden trends based on mortality rates.
• Comparing communicable disease mortality across different populations.
• Informing public health policy and resource allocation based on standardized mortality metrics.

Strengths
