  1. Notes: (1) Rates represent deaths per 100,000, standardised to using the 2011 Australian Estimated Resident Population of people aged 30–69 years. (2) The probability of premature death due to cancer (C00–C97), cardiovascular disease (CVD) (I00–I99), chronic respiratory diseases (J30–J98) and diabetes (E10-E14) combined is displayed under non-communicable diseases (NCD4) combined
