REPORT OF DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH


MORTALITY STATISTICS


Number of Deaths and Death Rates. During the year 1937, there were 691 deaths that occurred in Quincy, 41 more than in 1936. Based on the estimated population of 79,489, the crude death rate was 8.7 per 1000 population, as compared with a crude death rate of 8.2 per 1000 population in 1936.


Of the 691 deaths in Quincy, 66 were non-residents. There were 152 Quincy residents who died outside of the city; so that the number of resident deaths for the year was 777 as compared with 735 for 1936. The corrected or resident death rate was 9.77 per 1000 population, a slight increase over last year. The tables for 1937 are based on resident deaths; the non-resident deaths being excluded and resident deaths occurring outside of Quincy included.


Sex. Of the 777 resident deaths for 1937, 412 or 53 per cent were males, and 365 or 47 per cent were females. The proportion of males in the living population shown by the United States Census of 1930 was 49.3. Based on this ratio the male resident death rate for Quincy in 1937 was 10.5 as against a rate of 9. for females.


Age. Of the 777 deaths in 1937, 41 or 5.3 per cent were of in- fants under one year of age. More detailed information of in- fant mortality is in a following paragraph and in Table 5. Other age distributions will be found in Table 1.


Nativity. 62.3 per cent of the decedents were of native birth and 37.7 per cent were foreign born.


Infant Mortality. The infant mortality rate for Quincy in 1937 was 32. as against 42.5 per 1000 live births in 1936. This figure is the lowest rate Quincy has ever had. The previous low being in 1936 when 36.6 was the rate. The following figures show at what time of the first year of life these deaths occurred :


First day 14 deaths or 34.2%


Less than 1 week but more than one day 5 deaths or 12.2%


Less than 1 month but more than 1 week. 6 deaths or 14.6%


Less than 6 months but more than 1 month 13 deaths or 31.7%


Less than 1 year but more than 6 months. 3 deaths or 7.3%


Total 41 deaths or 100.%


Of these 41 infant deaths, 20 were caused by premature birth, injury at birth, and other diseases peculiar to early infancy. This, incidentally, is a remarkably low number of these particular causes of death. There were in addition 8 deaths from congenital malformation. Table 2 will show under what division these and the balance of 13 deaths were classified.


Heart Disease, as usual, was the leading cause of death, with 240 or approximately 30 per cent of the total, with a rate of 308.9 per 100,000 population. In 1936 the rate was 234.5 per 100,000 popula- tion.


Brights-Disease and Nephritis caused 78 deaths for a rate of 100.4 per 100,000 population. The rate for 1936 was 82.8 per 100,000 population.


Cerebral Hemorrhage, Cerebral Embolism and Thrombosis were the cause of 60 deaths, with a rate of 78.6 per 100,000 population, as against a rate of 58.6 on 1936.
