“Preliminary 2004 national homicide and suicide data from NVSS indicate a decline in rates from 2003 levels; data from the seven states in NVDRS collecting data in both 2003 and 2004 also indicate a decline. Violent deaths continue to be among the 10 leading causes of death in the United States for persons aged < 65 years.
