The mortality rates of Moslems, Druze and Christians in Israel have decreased strikingly since the early 1950s, mainly because of a decline in mortality among children and younger women. There has been an increase in mortality among middle-aged and elderly men. Mortality from infective diseases had declined, but these remain important causes of death, particularly among Moslems and Druze. Mortality from external causes has increased in recent years. The mortality rate from ischemic heart disease has risen sharply; it is especially high among Christian men. Mortality due to congenital anomalies is relatively high among Moslems and Druze.
自20世纪50年代初以来，以色列穆斯林、德鲁兹人和基督徒的死亡率显著下降，这主要是由于儿童和年轻女性死亡率的下降。中年和老年男性的死亡率有所上升。传染病死亡率有所下降，但这些仍是重要的死亡原因，尤其是在穆斯林和德鲁兹人中。近年来，外部原因导致的死亡率有所上升。缺血性心脏病的死亡率急剧上升；在基督教男性中尤其高。穆斯林和德鲁兹人中先天性异常导致的死亡率相对较高。
