Premature mortality projections in the USA through 2030: a modelling study. Lancet Public Health 2018;
3: 374–84—In the Findings section of the Summary of this Article the first sentence should read “During 2017–
30, all-cause deaths are projected to increase among white women and American Indians or Alaska natives, resulting in 239 700 excess premature deaths relative to 2017 rates (a 10% increase).” Also, in the fourth paragraph of the Discussion, the reduction in deaths during 2017–30 relative to 2015–16 due to prevention of cancer and heart disease deaths was incorrectly reported for only cancer deaths. The sentence should read “We predict that decades-long progress in prevention of cancer and heart disease deaths will continue in most US populations,4 with 418 200 fewer deaths during 2017–30 relative to 2015–16 rates.” These corrections have been made to the online version as of July 25, 2018.
