coverage are coded /JU".<br />

about one per cent of the total.<br />
3. Excluding Asian and Coloured (mixed) population.<br />
4 Data include stillbirths.<br />
5 Registration believed to be complete for "civilized" population only,<br />
which represents a relatively small proportion of the total.<br />

epidemics.<br />
