Abstract
It is well known that more than half of the world’s deaths pass by undocumented as to cause1. Whilst the appropriate focus of health services may well be the care of the living, consistent and reliable cause-of-death data also constitute a crucial and major resource for health planning and prioritization, and their lack in many settings is a major concern towards filling these data gaps 2,3.
