More women in the workforce reduces mortalityhttp://bmj.com/cgi/content/full/324/7350/1352/b
NewsMore women in the workforce reduces mortalityA new independent study for the European Commission says that the principal factors influencing patterns of mortality and life expectancy in the European Union and United States relate to economic trends, especially employment rates and economic growth. Despite well known health risks The report shows that decreased mortality can be seen in some European countries in the same year that employment increases and in other countries within 24-48 months. Moreover, the beneficial impact on mortality of more people in work can be measured for a further decade. The converse is equally true. The higher that unemployment is in a given year, the higher the mortality will be over the next decade. Drawing on quantitative historical analyses of data from the second world war to the present, the report's main conclusion is that the growth in per capita wealth in western Europe is the principal long term factor in the decline in mortality. But it adds that unemployment rates exert an independent and damaging effect on national health. It uses cross sectional studies on unemployment rates and mortality, comparing certain British counties with US states, to show that the two phenomena are closely related.

 "A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C. Jarvis, September 28, 1820 "What's the point of vaccination if it doesn't protect you from the unvaccinated?" -- Sandy Gottstein "Who gets to decide what the greater good is and how many will be sacrificed to it?" -- Sandy Gottstein |
