Burden of Disease study published

Victorian Health Minister Bronwyn Pike yesterday announced the publication of the Victorian Burden of Disease Study (20o1), which reports on the 50 most common diseases and injuries in Victoria and the prevalence of these in each of the 78 local government areas in the State.
Those interested in dental epidemiology can search for statistics on dental caries and oral cancers and compare results against other common diseases and conditions.
