On the other hand, the World Health Organization (WHO) database is a little more recent and allows data to be broken down by age group. For her, the causes of death are divided into three categories: communicable diseases, such as infectious and parasitic diseases, maternal or perinatal conditions; non-communicable diseases (read: chronic diseases) and injuries.
When we look at the latest data available (2019) for Europe, we see that women die mainly from communicable diseases, including respiratory infections. Among women aged 15-29 and 30-49, non-communicable diseases are responsible for most deaths.
