Because of different age-structures of the two populations. In the US, there is a higher proportion of old persons, while in Haiti, there is a higher proportion of young persons. This difference in age structures means that the number of persons who die per unit of time will be higher in the country with a higher proportion of old persons. To avoid this problem, one should use age-standardized mortality rates.
