Very impressive graph in here. Also: "“It’s huge,” I was told by the epidemiologist Michael Marmot. “If our health and life expectancy is in decline, it’s about as clear a sign as you can get that our society is in decline.” In the 1980s, Marmot studied the Soviet bloc and saw illness increase. That’s one way you could tell those societies were on the verge of collapse. Now it’s starting to happen in hypercapitalist countries. Scientists increasingly worry about “midlife mortality” in Britain: people in the prime of their lives dropping dead. In Donald Trump’s America, where life expectancy is plunging, more women are dying between the ages of 25 and 44 than did in 1990. Sick lives are the product of sick societies."
