    Definition

    Denmark does not compile continuous and official statistics on the mortality rate directly attributable to unsafe water or unsafe sanitation. However, Statistics Denmark estimates - on the basis on statistics from the World Health Organisation and Global Health Observatory - that very few people, if any, die as a direct consequence of unsafe water or unsafe sanitation.
