Armani? Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/08/31/1120192583/life-expectancy-in-the-u-s-continues-to-drop-driven-by-covid-19 Quote Life expectancy in the U.S. fell in 2021, for the second year in a row. In 2019, someone born in the U.S. had a life expectancy of nearly 80 years. In 202o, because of the pandemic, that dropped to 77 years. In 2021 life-span dropped again — to 76.1 years. And for some Americans, life expectancy is even lower, according to a provisional analysis from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "The results of this study are very disturbing," says Dr. Steven Woolf, a professor of population health and health equity at Virginia Commonwealth University. "This shows that U.S. life expectancy in 2021 was even lower than in 2020," he says.

Communion Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) And to think we have a Democratic president who said he would veto Medicare For All if passed by Congress when M4A would have prevented over 300k COVID deaths. The US being the only developed nation in the world to not guarantee healthcare as a human right is a moral failing.
