Context: The CDC reported earlier this year that life expectancy has declined for Americans living in rural regions (about 15% of the population) and people living in these areas are more likely to die from the top five causes of death (heart disease, cancer, unintentional injury, chronic lower respiratory disease and stroke) than people in metropolitan areas.

Diets high in sodium have been linked to high blood pressure, which is a risk factor for heart disease and stroke — two of the leading causes of death in the US. Reducing salt intake by about 40 percent over the next 10 years could save 500,000 lives and nearly $100 billion in health care costs, the FDA says.

" Morral and Smart explained the root of the problem: "Although approximately 40,000 Americans die annually from gunshot injuries, and two or three times this number sustain non-fatal gunshot injuries, the federal government currently spends a fraction as much on gun violence prevention research as it does on other causes of death that kill similar numbers of people.
|

HARRY STRULOVICI, NEW YORK The writer, a surgeon and global health consultant, is the founder of Life for Mothers, an N.G.O. To the Editor: In response to the statistics that black women in New York City are 12 times as likely to die from childbirth as white women, the editorial explored some solutions, including improved response to three leading causes of death (hemorrhage, hypertension and blood clots), publishing hospital ratings and funding doula programs.

"And I think he is making a point that I really agree with on this, which is that, look, over the long term, if we can get to a state where we have good self-driving cars — you know, one of the leading causes of people dying is car accidents — and if we can get to a state where we have good self-driving cars, then that is going to potentially massively reduce one of the leading causes of death and is a very important humanitarian thing that needs to done," Zuckerberg says.
