When one separates the stats on causes of death is it appropriate to
have only 3 categories:
Injury- accident, murder, suicide, war, starvation, childbirth ,medical
procedure failure
Infection - all infectious disease acute and chronic under age 65,
congenital malformations leading to death under age 6, allergy related
Ageing as a generalized, chronic degenerative terminal disease -
infectious disease after age 65, congenital malformations after age 6,
all the chronic and various wide ranging degenerative conditions from
heart disease to cancer to neurological catastrophe, and general
systemic failure including all the longer term ones such as low level
inflammatory conditions such as arthritis.
Has onyone a quick link to stats for their country that can be sorted
out in this way?
Does any country or organization accept ageing as a disease in a format
as above?
