Note:
Percent of deaths by condition are not shown ("†") for states with less than 10 total deaths reported for the time interval. States with less than 10 deaths for every cause of death are not presented.
Percentages may total more than 100% due to deaths with multiple pneumoconioses, or to less than 100% due to rounding.
