Background
The CDC groups a number of "cause" of death into
large categories for simplification of gathering and
reporting mortality data. These data are used every year in
numerous reports by Federal, State, City and
not-for-profits, local agencies, and businesses . However,
it hides whqt is really going on with Oregonian's physial
and mental health and the systems progress. These data,
presented in that manner, hide the seriousness of death by
suiide, particularly for our youth under 25 and all MAABs
though 54. This distration is not intentional and is not to
fault the peoples in Oregon developing corrective plans to
reach their goal of Zero Suicides. Acknowledging the truth,
however, does enourage and support the legislature to inest
more heavily in Behavioral health, to bring our mortality
data more in liine with the size of our county (27th)
distractio from the reality tht is happening within those
giant categories.

Cucumbers - CDC, AFSP - 10 Leading Causes (Categorys) of
Death
In 2020, the CDC reported the following top causes
(categories) of death in Oregon. Suicide dropped out of the
top 10 because, instead of including Covid-19 deaths with
Influenza and pneumonia, it was given its own
spot.

because olf the addition of Covid which, I believe, should
have follow the CDC strategy of combinations to be included
with Influenza and Pnemonia.
