Welcome to INEQKILL, where we tackle the issue of ‘ultimate inequality’—disparities in death! We explore the evolution of all-cause and cause-specific mortality inequalities in Belgium from 1800 to 2025. Join us on this exciting journey! www.ineqkill.be
Both studies highlight evolving socioeconomic and environmental influences on health outcomes over time. They underscore the importance of historical perspective for addressing current health inequalities! #PublicHealth #HealthHistory"

Philippe's research reveals changing cancer mortality patterns in 20th-century Belgium. Industrialized areas showed high rates, but some rural areas are surprisingly affected too, presenting a paradox that warrants further investigation. (2/5)
