Burden of Disease (BoD) - Victoria

The Burden of Disease study uses methods developed originally for the Global Burden of Disease study refined and adapted to the Victorian context. It provides a comprehensive assessment of the amount of ill health in Victoria, Australia, measured in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) arising from most diseases and injuries.

The estimations made for 1996 have been substantially improved and updated to 2001.
