Abstract

Cuba and Denmark represent states with different welfare models that have reached the same level of life expectancy. The purpose was to investigate and compare mortality changes in the two countries. Systematically collected information on population numbers and deaths for the entire Cuban and Danish populations was the basis of life table data used to quantify differences in the change in age-at-death distributions since 1955, age-specific contributions to differences in life expectancy, lifespan variation, and other changes in mortality patterns in Cuba and Denmark. Life expectancy in Cuba and Denmark converged until 2000, when the increase in life expectancy for Cuba slowed down. Since 1955, infant mortality has fallen in both countries but mostly in Cuba. Both populations experienced compression of mortality as lifespan variation decreased markedly, primarily due to postponement of early deaths. Given the different starting point in the mid-1900s and living conditions for Cubans and Danes, health status achieved among Cubans is striking. A rapidly ageing population is challenging both countries, but Cuban health and welfare are further burdened by a deteriorating economy in recent decades.

两个不同福利模式国家的死亡率模式趋势:1955-2020年古巴与丹麦的比较。
古巴和丹麦代表着福利模式不同但预期寿命水平相同的国家。目的是调查和比较两国的死亡率变化。系统收集的关于整个古巴和丹麦人口的人口数量和死亡的信息是生命表数据的基础,用于量化古巴和丹麦自1955年以来死亡年龄分布变化的差异、特定年龄对预期寿命差异的贡献、寿命变化以及死亡率模式的其他变化。古巴和丹麦的预期寿命直到2000年才趋于一致,但古巴预期寿命的增长速度有所放缓。自1955年以来,两国的婴儿死亡率都有所下降,但主要是在古巴。由于寿命差异显著减小,这两个种群的死亡率都有所降低,这主要是由于过早死亡的推迟。考虑到古巴人和丹麦人在1900年代中期的不同起点和生活条件,古巴人的健康状况是惊人的。人口迅速老龄化对两国都构成挑战,但近几十年来经济恶化进一步加重了古巴人的健康和福利负担。
