Association of Tropical Cyclones With County-Level Mortality in the US

Robbie M. Parks et al.

Summary: This study examines the association between county-level tropical cyclone exposure and death rates from various causes in the US. The findings show that each additional cyclone day per month is associated with slightly higher death rates in the months following the cyclone for several causes of death, including injuries, infectious and parasitic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, neuropsychiatric conditions, and respiratory diseases.
