What people in your state are dying of.

The map shows what the prevalent cause of death in each state is.
I was surprised by the what the causes were in Tx (Tuberculosis), La (Syphilis) both treatable diseases with basic health care.
I was not surprised by pneumoconiosis (black lung diseases) in Pa,Wv & Ky, as they are major coal states.
I was surprised to see that guns were the prevalent cause of death in Az,Ar,Tn & Al. let alone in ANY state.
Fl was a wake up call with HIV.

The key word in the article is "fabricated", as it is more than misleading unless you read the details. As an example, note cancers and heart disease ar not on the map. Also note that La. shows up with syphillis as the "major cause of death" with an average of 2.2 deaths PER YEAR!

You are so right and thanks for reading it more carefully than I did. I read it again (carefully this time) and it does have many holes.
I requested it be taken down.
