#' census.2010
#'
#' United States 2010 infant mortality and number of physicians by state,
#' including the District of Columbia.
#'
#' Data were abstracted from the 2010 Statistical Abstract of the United States.
#' Due to a lag in recording state level data, the infant mortality data is from
#' 2009 and the data on physicians from 2007.  Both measurements are subject to
#' change annually, so these data are not current and should not be used for
#' inference about infant mortality. More current data can be found at the US
#' Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (\url{https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/infant_mortality_rates/infant_mortality.htm}), and in the dataset \code{infant_mort_2022}.
