Housing damage resulting from great east Japan earthquake and all-cause mortality

Scientists know that natural disasters have negative health effects on survivors, but long-term observations are lacking. To help fill this gap, a research team has investigated the connection between the degree of housing damage caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE) and all-cause mortality. Using long-term observation periods, this research project shows no significant relationship between the degree of house damage and all-cause mortality.
