The staff of the National Center for Health Statistics deserve much appreciation for undertaking the task of reissuing older mortality data newly standardized to the 2000 standard million and for recognizing the importance of these updated data to the valid monitoring of racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in health. Their work only underscores the critical importance of conducting similar efforts for the many public health outcomes other than mortality that are also vital for monitoring the public's health.
