Chart ranks total deaths for the top 50 causes by age and gender. Rank is determined by official CDC final death total and certain causes such as types of heart disease and cancer are split out for age adjusted death rate rankings to give you an expanded view of what actually takes place. For this reason they will not always match rankings for top 15 causes for age adjusted death rates which use a different combination of ICD-10 Codes.

Things have changed so much over the last 100 years.

What's crazy is that most deaths are from LIFESTYLE choices......what happened to the days where ppl would just die from influenza and polio?

Oh yea.....vaccinations....well good thing ppl want to get rid of those.
