Increases in Age-Group-Specific Injury Mortality?United States, 1999-2004

摘要

From 1979 to 1999, total injury mortality rates declined overall in the United States, despite increases in suicide rates in the late 1980s and in homicide rates in the early 1990s (CDC, unpublished data, 2007). From 1999 to 2004, however, total injury mortality rates increased 5.5%, from 53.3 to 56.2 per 100,000 population, the first sustained increase in 25 years.# #1 Dollars 1001N200307007Dollars 1200
