I recently wrote about the Visual.ly Health Data Visualization Challenge and promised to share the winning infographics when they were announced.
Below are the top ten finishers in order taken from the Health Data Visualization Contest Winners.
1. Dana Ng squeaked into first place with this great static infographic about cancer: Cancer Anyone?
The graphic tells a great story, has a good flow, and overall high quality graphic design. Dana will receive a license for Tableau Desktop, a ticket to Strata Conference + Hadoop World, and $500 to help with travel expenses for the conference.

2. Missing first by just one point, Susie Lu and Anson Chu put together a great interactive (with some chart advice from Bob Monteverde) on USA Health Care Reform and Spending.
They will win $200 towards an ebook reader of their choice.
3. Third was also just one point behind. Chris Nabors put together a great interactive (aside from the initial donut charts with too many sections) about US Natality.
Chris gets a signed copy of I Love Charts: The Book by Jason Oberholtzer, as well as a copy of Show Me How by Derek Fagerstrom and Lauren Smith, and Listomania curated by Mariah Bear.
4. Fourth was also a close one, and does a really great job with data analysis. Stephanie Vatz created an interactive map detailing America’s Worst Nursing Homes.
To recognize the great data work that Stephanie did, Strata has thrown in a bonus prize: Stephanie will receive a pass to the new Strata Rx Conference.
5. Terri Bleeker seems to be a track fan with her infographic covering Youth Track Injuries.
