Death rates from suicide measured per 100,000 individuals across various age categories. Also shown is the total death rate across all ages (not age-standardized)
and the age-standardized death rate. Age-standardization assumes a constant population age & structure to allow for comparisons between countries and with time
without the effects of a changing age distribution within a population (e.g. aging).
