Life expectancy
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
(Redirected from Average life span)
"There was a very slight reduction in US life expectancy between 2014 and 2015, the result of drugs, alcoholism and what are known as 'diseases of despair'. Widespread and growing obesity is not helping either. It is too early to say whether such a reverse will become significant, widespread and lasting." -- The Human Tide (2019) by Paul Morland |
