IFR Projections 1999
Haldenwang BB. High, Medium and Low Projections of the South African
Population, 1996-2031. Cape Town: Institute for Futures Research; 1999.
URL: http://www.ifr.sun.ac.za/
Details: High population projections: The demographic impact of HIV/AIDS is
not incorporated, therefore life expectancy at birth increases throughout the
projection period; fertility rates decline steadily; and a high degree of in-migration
(200 000 per annum) is assumed. Medium population projections: The impact of
the HIV/AIDS epidemic is incorporated from 2011 onwards; fertility rates in
black/African and coloured women decline more rapidly than in the high
projections; and a medium degree of in-migration (150 000 per annum) is assumed.
Low population projections: The impact of HIV/AIDS epidemic is incorporated
from 1996 onwards; fertility rates are similar to those of the medium projections;
and a low degree of in-migration (100 000 per annum) is assumed.

Pattinson RC (ed). Saving Mothers: Report on Confidential Enquiries into
Maternal Deaths in South Africa 1998. October 1999.
URL: http://www.doh.gov.za/docs/reports/mothers/contents.html
Details: Note that the methodology of confidential enquiries make them not an
ideal public health tool for estimating maternal mortality ratios, primarily because
reporting is health institution based and often under-reported. For 1998, the only
provinces where there is a fair degree of confidence that the vast majority of
deaths were recorded were Free State, Gauteng and Western Cape.
