Fig. 6

Distribution of pneumonia deaths by wealth quintile and scenario in Nigeria, Pakistan, and Ethiopia. The numbers in the green boxes represent the percentage of deaths in each wealth quintile. Wealth quintiles: I = Lowest, II = Lower, III = Middle, IV = Higher, V = Highest. AUC = area under the curve. ∆ AUC: Percent change in AUC compared to Scenario 1 (S1). 95% uncertainty ranges are indicated in parentheses. (S1): distribution of deaths when no treatment is available; S2: current quintile-specific treatment coverage rates; S3: national average of treatment coverage for all quintiles; S4: treatment coverage proportional to quintile-specific baseline mortality risks; S5: equal baseline mortality risk with current quintile-specific treatment coverage rates
