What do people die of?

An interesting article from the BBC, including maps of cause of death, stratified by age, across the UK.

I think the interesting thing is what the reporter says right at the very end about what people actually die of, as opposed to what government policy thinks is a cause of death worth spending money on preventing.

"what government policy thinks is a cause of death worth spending money on preventing."
