The hidden cause of the life expectancy gap

From PBS Terra.

Why do people living in the Southeastern United States die about a decade earlier on average than other Americans? New research reveals a hidden toll that’s been overlooked for decades: hurricanes.

Weathered is a show hosted by weather expert Maiya May and produced by Balance Media that helps explain the most common natural disasters, what causes them, how they’re changing, and what we can do to prepare.
