FIRE Deaths by Country and World
This bar chart race shows the annual number of deaths due to fire, heat and hot substances, total and mortality rate per 100,000 people, by country and world, from 1990 to 2019.
Deaths due to fire or burns have been a significant global concern, with variations in trends depending on factors such as socioeconomic conditions, infrastructure, and public awareness. The majority of fire-related deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries, where access to advanced medical care and fire safety measures may be limited.
Several factors contribute to the occurrence of fire-related deaths, including residential fires, workplace accidents, and large-scale disasters. Common causes include faulty electrical systems, inadequate building codes, lack of firefighting resources, and human negligence.
Efforts to reduce fire-related deaths have included improvements in building safety standards, increased public awareness campaigns on fire prevention, and advancements in emergency response services. Despite these efforts, challenges persist, especially in regions where resources are scarce.
