I am very shocked to see how with editing, concerns about access to materials and other restrictions, a website that was displaying state of affairs in cause of death has mutated into a rather useless US biased information with references to OECD - and removing links to WHO materials that provide support and deal with the topic. I call this vandalism. And you block WHO IP addresses claiming vandalism from WHO.
This is of great concern, and misleading users looking up cause of death.
We will create our own page at WHO and also have to recommend to disregard wikipedia for this topic. Very very sorry about the ways you work.

Death rates are given for dementia and arthritis - but how can someone die of arthritis ? - if arthritis makes you fall, break a limb, and die of a subsequent infection is the official cause of death (in a specific jurisdiction) : the arthritis, the fall, or the infection ? Do death certificates allow multiple causes ? If someone with dementia (or arthritis) falls and dies, is the usual policy to record the [probable?] cause of death as the dementia (unless perhaps there is clear evidence the fall was not due to the dementia) ? - Rod57 (talk) 08:39, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
