- Unlocking Patterns of Alcohol Consumption in British Columbia Using Alcohol Sales Data: A Foundation for Public Health Monitoring
Alcohol sales data provide a more accurate indication of alcohol consumption than alternative methods such as population surveys. This information can be used to better understand epidemiological issues related to alcohol consumption, policy development and evaluation. Official sales records were collected for the 28 regional districts of British Columbia (BC) for 2002-2005, while homemade alcohol was estimated from survey data. Alcohol consumption rates were found to vary across geographic regions, by season, and with population level demographics. Government stores were the largest source of alcohol consumption in BC, accounting for 45.1% of total alcohol consumption in 2004. U-Brews/U-Vins accounted for 4.0%, private liquor stores accounted for 27.5% of the total, and homemade alcoho...

- Disparity in Death Rate Trends: Implications for Public Health Management
Disparity in health outcomes and health status has been studied for many years. The effect of disparities in mortality is of particular interest. A significant volume of research has focused on disparity in mortality with respect to the influence of race, sex, education, occupation and geographic area of residence. This study was conducted to evaluate death rates in Mississippi over a 10-year period of time and the disparities that are present. Comparisons were made across several causes of death with respect to the influence of race, gender and geography. Trends in disparity were studied, along with resultant implications for public health policy and practice. Results of this study were that males have a higher death rate than females. This finding also occurred within races. Overall, ...

- Public Health Agencies Can Best Help Women
Much has been made over the past weeks about Tennessee Right to Life's opposition to the use of taxpayer dollars to subsidize Planned Parenthood, the nation's leading abortion provider. Some Planned Parenthood supporters may charge that Tennessee Right to Life does not care about women's health, but nothing could be further from the truth. Since 2007 a legislative priority of Tennessee Right to Life has been ensuring that taxpayer dollars are directed to existing public agencies with a demonstrated ability to provide necessary family planning services. Our focus has been to legislatively encourage public health departments in both Davidson and Shelby counties to join all other 93 Tennessee counties in accepting all available federal Title X funds. Our goal, supported by a majority of Te...
