ABSTRACT
PIP: The author presents age- and sex-specific death rates for black and white residents of Suffolk County, New York, for all causes of death and for diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, and cerebrovascular disease. He finds that black-white ratios of age-specific death rates for the period 1979-1983 are elevated for all causes for men and women. Consideration is given to the effects of educational status, poverty, medical care, and obesity.
