Average American #lifeexpectancy fell again in 2021, with every category of the US population being affected by the decline. Life expectancy has now fallen back to where it was in 1996. Men lost eight months of expected life span. Women lost seven months. 1/

The average American can now expect to live 76.4 years, a loss of eight months compared to 2020. The latter year recorded an even greater decline from the level of 2019. The rate of death is increasing from young adults and children. 3/
#GDP, again: "The contrast between overall #wellbeing and economic #growth is perhaps most evident in the #US. Between 2020 and 2021 US GDP increased by 9.08%, but during that same period, #LifeExpectancy actually decreased by 0.39 years."

"When you push against a system and it is an unjust system, you must prepare yourself mentally for the isolation and resistance that comes with that.

Here is a thread explaining the main results-
#aging #longevity 1/12
Life expectancy has increased dramatically over last 150 years - most US children born today are expected to live into their mid-80s #longevity. This has shifted the disease burden towards chronic Non-Communicable diseases #aging and an increase in years spent in poor health 2/12 
How should we value these past and future life expectancy gains? Is a compression of morbidity more valuable? What is the value of treatments that delay #aging? How does that compare with treating single diseases? 3/12
