title: Retirement and mortality.
abstract: The impact of retirement on morbidity and mortality in Canada is examined.  "The mortality experience of a cohort of 15,260 men and 5,632 women, retiring in 1970 at the age of 65, is compared with corresponding age-specific death rates observed in the general Canadian population between 1970-74."  The mortality differentials observed are analyzed by sex.
