• Population growthRelated: Falling mortality can increase population size even when birth rates stay high.

• Secondary preventionRelated: Effective measures can reduce deaths by interrupting progression after disease begins.

• Life tableRelated: Age-specific mortality rates supply the central inputs for calculating a life table.

• Herpes simplex encephalitisRelated: Untreated disease is often fatal, while antiviral therapy substantially improves survival.

• Population declineRelated: Deaths outnumbering births can make a population shrink.
