چکیده :
A natural experiment is employed to analyze the relationship between living standards,
diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Results show that shocks generated by two powerful
tropical storms striking Puerto Rico during the late 1920s and early 1930s had long-term
consequences consistent with the fetal origins hypothesis. Individuals in the womb or
early infancy in the aftermath of the storms are more likely to report a diagnosis of
hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, and are considerably more likely to have no
formal schooling.
