Life expectancy in the U.S. has dropped sharply in the last two years, to the point that now the average Cuban will live nearly three years more than the average American.
The latest numbers released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that, in 2021, U.S. life expectancy at birth is now 76.1 years, dropping by nearly a full year from the 2020 figure.
Life expectancy for men is now 73.2, and for women, it is 79.9.
The decline means that several countries have caught up with or surpassed the U.S. According to World Bank data, Cuba’s life expectancy is 78.9, and China’s is 77.1, although both figures are from 2020 rather than 2021.
Other countries that are ahead of the U.S. in terms of life expectancy include: Colombia, Uruguay and Chile; Costa Rica, Panama and Puerto Rico; and Turkey, Greece and Albania.
All of those countries have a GDP per head in dollar terms that is less than half of that of Americans.
The U.S. ranks around 50th in the world for life expectancy (depending on data and what is considered a country or territory), and this has dropped 2.7 years since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Is it the poor food standards in the US with all the chemical additives, and the bad medical, medicine and vaccines they are pushing on us? A dive into why this is the case would be helpful.

It would be hard to know where to start, Raymond. I expect the extreme income inequality has something to do with it. As billionaires get richer and richer, other people are getting poorer and poorer.

Our rampant, out-of-control homelessness problem may have something to do with it. Who can eat wholesome, nutritious meals(if you can find any in this cesspool of toxic waste ‘food’) when they have no home and everyone is aware that the diseases among the homeless are now epidemics; typhus, hookworm and now the claim is that homeless people are the new faces of monkeypox. Homeless people aren’t the only ones eating out of dumpsters. Our entire food supply over here is garbage.

Wow, I was unaware of the disease epidemics among the homeless, Shelby. In any sane country, public health officials would be addressing that crisis and not trying to foist dangerous and useless vaccines on the rest of us.

I agree, but there’s no sanity to be found among our public health officials or ANY officials for that matter. We are doomed.
