Why is life expectancy falling in the USA?
The average life expectancy of Americans is shrinking at an alarming rate.
Between 2019 and 2021, a staggering 2.7 years has been shaved off, leaving the revised figure at 76.1 years - the lowest it’s been in more than two decades.
It also sees the U.S. rank 46th in the global life expectancy charts, behind Estonia and just a nose ahead of Panama.
Paul Connolly is joined by John Burn Murdoch, Mary Pat Campbell and Dr Nick Mark to discuss why, on average, citizens of the world’s richest country are dying so young.
