Q 7d
overall health at different times or in different countries. The idea will be clearer if we start by looking at
death rates. Figure 7.14a O shows the U.S. death rate (deaths per 1000 people) for people of different
ages. Note that there is an elevated risk of death shortly after birth, after which the death rate drops to

very low levels. At about 15 years of age, the death rate begins a gradual rise.
