.download_mcod_fwf | R Documentation |
The CDC hosts publicly available multiple cause of death data as a fixed- width text file. This function downloads that file as a zip. Note that the CDC FTP is very slow–downloading from NBER via the download_mcod_dta() or download_mcod_csv() functions is strongly suggested.
