Today I went on the CIA world fact book to learn basic information about Zimbabwe. I found some interesting facts that I didn't expect. It says that the population growth rate is at -0.787%. I found this as an interesting fact because it means that a good chunk of people are getting out of the country, to better, modernized countries. The negative population growth is not because of how many deaths there are, because the birth rate is sill higher than the death rate. Something that was not as good and I think displays the bad health conditions in Zimbabwe is that only 3.9% of the population is 65 and over, compared to the U.S.'s 12.7%
