The Diseases and Deaths of… Everybody !
 
 
• What did Dutch Schultz, Lenny Bruce and King George II have in common? * 
• How many Popes have been assassinated? *
• Which is a more common cause of death in Hollywood - suicide or AIDS? *
• How many famous persons have suffered from Alzheimers disease *.
 
...and then there were those 65 famous decapitations, 444 lung cancers, 33 murdered baseball players, 31 folks who died while performing on-stage … and 7 who died while having sex!
 
VIPatients is the only comprehensive source for the diseases and deaths of famous persons.   The data bases are accurate, comprehensive (and continually upgraded) and based on 40 years of intensive research.  Sources include all issues of TIME, NEWS WEEK, The New York Times, biographies, anthologies, Encyclopedia Britannica, peer-reviewed medical journals, etc.
    
VIPatients encompasses ALL diseases and deaths of ALL famous persons, worldwide - from Biblical times to this mornings news.  To date, the program includes over 14,000 famous persons - living and dead: composers, saints and apostles, musicians (by instrument) and athletes (by sport), criminals, famous animals, movie-television-radio stars, American Indians and cowboys, circus folk, world leaders (by country), inventors, biblical personalities, painters and sculptors, industrialists...over 319 professions. 
 
 
For each person, or profession, the user can instantly access details on 437 diseases and causes of death: vehicular accidents (automobile, bicycle, airplane, etc), animal bites, battle injuries, cancer (by type), decapitation, heart surgery, psychiatric disorders, suicide-murder-execution (by method), fractures (by bone)...and lots more.  Options also allow generation of a list for a given profession (ie, all popular singers) or year(s); or a listing of fatal cases only (as opposed to all cases) for a given disease.
