omitted from the list of contributors to the Mental Health chapter. |
| p. 1 |
In Figure 1.1 (map), the town of Gualala
is inaccurately shown as being located within Sonoma County. Gualala
is located just north of the Sonoma County border on the coast and
is actually a part of Mendocino County. |
| p. 31 |
In Table 4.2, the total for 1994 should
be 29, and the total for 1998 should be 36. |
| p. 32 |
In the bullet under "Child Care," numbers
of shortages of childcare places are provided. While these numbers
are correct, Family Action of Sonoma County estimates the total
shortfall at 7,373, factoring new spaces and use of non-formal care
that will cover 50% of the shortages of childcare places. |
| p. 37 |
In Figure 5.1, the labels for "Reported
cases" and "Deaths" are reversed. Deaths are represented by the
white bar, while reported cases are represented by the solid black
line. |
| p. 48 |
In Figure 6.2, the cancer death rates
shown for Sonoma County and California are for 1998, not 1997. |
| p. 49 |
In Figure 6.5, the breast cancer death
rates shown for Sonoma County and California are for the total population
(i.e., both females and males), while the Healthy People 2000 Objective
applies to females only. The 1998 female breast cancer death rate
for Sonoma County was 16.7 per 100,000 females (95% confidence interval
= 12.0, 21.4). The 1998 female breast cancer death rate for California
was 17.6 per 100,000 females (95% confidence interval = 17.0, 18.2). |
