- Indicator id: `preventable_mortality_rate`
- Place id: `fi`
- Unit: per 100,000 people
- Definition: Deaths of people under 75 from causes that can mainly be avoided through effective public health and primary prevention (before a disease or injury starts), per 100,000 inhabitants under 75, age-standardised.
- Note: Based on the OECD and Eurostat lists of avoidable causes of death (2022 version), which count COVID-19 as preventable, so preventable mortality peaks in 2020 to 2022. A cause on both lists is split half and half. Age-standardised with the 2013 European standard population.
