Dr. Susan Devesa presents more detailed data on cervical cancer mortality disparities and examines the ecological correlates between the population characteristics and cervical mortality rates. Key findings suggest that populations living in counties with lower median education, higher percentages of people living in poverty and people unemployed are more likely to reside in counties with higher cervical cancer mortality.
