Let's Get Healthy in 2010
Medical Assessments
- HIV/Aids is the leading cause of death among women between the ages of 15 and 44; unsafe sex is the biggest risk factor. The death rates of women in their reproductive years occurred in low-income (22.3 percent) and middle-income countries (15.4 percent).
- Breast cancer is colorblind; however mortality rates for minority women are higher than for Caucasian women.
- Psychological and emotional factors often interfere with healthy lifestyles. This tends to be more prevalent among the nation's ethnic/racial minorities.
