The new crown epidemic has reduced the life expectancy of most developed countries, and the life expectancy of American men has fallen the most. Scientists from the University of Oxford studied the death records of 29 countries in Europe, the United States and most of Chile, and found that the life expectancy of American men has fallen the most, a decrease of 2.2 years compared with 2019, followed by Lithuanian men. For 1.7 years.
Women in 8 countries and men in 11 countries lost more than one year of life expectancy, and 22 countries lost more than half a year of life expectancy.
Dr. José, one of the main authors of the study, said: “For many Western European countries, such as Spain, England, Italy and Belgium, the last time life expectancy experienced such a dramatic drop was during World War II.”
Another researcher, Dr. Aburto, said: “It took an average of 5 to 6 years for these countries to achieve a one-year increase in life expectancy. This progress will disappear due to the epidemic in 2020.”
In the United States, part of the reason for the dramatic drop in life expectancy is a significant increase in the death rate of the working-age population.
According to available data that can be traced back to the Great Depression in 1933, the life expectancy of American women and men will experience unprecedented declines in 2020. Compared with the previous year, the life expectancy of American women in 2020 has dropped by 1.65 years.
