Recent mortality from cancer of the cervix in the United States and United Kingdom.

چکیده
Death-rates from cancer of the cervix in the United States in 1950-67 are compared with similar data for England and Wales. In the United States (unlike England and Wales) statistics show no evidence of a rise in mortality-rates for cancer of the cervix among women under 60 years: they show a decline in all 10-year age-groups from 30 to 79 among White women; among non-White women a similar decline has occurred in those aged 30-59, but the rates have remained relatively constant among those aged 60-79.
