Heart Disease Atlases
| West Virginia University, the University of South
Florida, and CDC developed these atlases to provide critical data on
geographic, racial, and ethnic inequalities in women's and men's heart
disease death rates for the five major racial and ethnic groups. The
atlases include more than 200 national and state maps of heart disease
mortality. |
 |
The maps highlight the geographic, racial, and ethnic inequalities in
heart disease mortality among men and women and provide government
agencies and their partners at the local, state, and national levels with
information to tailor heart–healthy programs and policies to the
communities with the greatest burden of heart disease.
