in a population.
Specific Mortality Rate (SMR)

- Shows rate of dying in a specific population group


- It can be calculated as:
-
Where F is any number of the base 10 that is used as a multiplier to
avoid having decimals as the final value of the indicator.

had Malaria for 8 months is a prevalent case.
