3.2 Trends
- Globally, under-five mortality has decreased by 33%, from an estimated rate of 89 deaths per 1000 live births in 1990 to 60 deaths per 1000 live births in 2009. This decline translates into an average annual decrease in child mortality of 2.1%. Numbers of under-five deaths have declined from 12.4 million in 1990 to 8.1 million in 2009. While progress has been made, it is unequally
Death are pretty similar to a bad condition of the flu, and appears in three different forms which are bubonic, septicemic and pneumonic. In these forms, Y. pestis bacteria are transmitted in a each way, and they cause a little bit different symptoms.
The bubonic plague is transmitted by the bite of an infected rat flea. It has a mortality rate of 30 to 75 percent and symptoms including high fe

Ⅰ. Introduction
1) Location
Russia is located in the north Eurasia continent (Far East Asia ~ Europe). Russia is the largest country in the world which is about 1/8 of the world’s land area. Because of this huge territory, there is an 11-hour time difference between East and West.
2) Climate
The huge territory of Russia also makes a various climate zone. Basically, Russia has continental
virus particles and virus within infected immune cells.
If infected with HIV, immune cell CD4+T-lymphocytes in our body are infected and destroyed by HIV. then immunity is decreased and results in various infectious diseases, tumors and death. This condition that begin to appear the body's immunity decreased, infectious disease and tumors is called AIDS, or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
Box1. 혈중 종양세포의 정량
혈중 종양세포(circulating tumor cells, CTCs)의 개수는 종양 전이의 민감한 생체지표이다. 따라서 CTC 정량은 암을 진단하고 단계를 판별('staging')하는데 그리고 잔존질환이 있는지를 조사하는데에 유용한 방법으로 떠오르고 있다. 이러한 임상적 중요성 때문에, 이 떠오르는 기술은
An individual who has a given health condition can face a higher probability of permanent disability or death (e.g. if he is infected with AIDS).
A given health status can limit an individual’s ability to supply effort (e.g. AIDS, malaria and other debilitating diseases).
3. Some diseases (e.g. malaria or intestinal worms) have a small impact on the probability of dying but significantl
