This thread by Atul Gawande, a doctor, analyzes recent death data from Massachusetts. Several interesting notes, especially this: "The starkest differences in death rates are not by race or gender, but by level of education. People with only a high school degree or less have a 350% higher annual rate of death than others. That's not a typo."
