Intensity index in males was 18,00/0000 and 8,00/0000 in females, with an excess of almost 2 times. There are high levels of mortality in males in comparison with females (14,10/0000 and 6,40/0000).

The highest levels of morbidity were observed in the age group of 60-69 years in both males and females (7,40/0000 and 2,80/0000, respectively).
