The "historic" decline in the predicted life expectancy of the United States

A recent report of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that the average life expectancy of the United States in 2021 decreased nearly 1 year from the previous year and fell for two consecutive years. In the past two years, a total of 2.7 years have been reduced. The US media said that this is the two years with the largest life expectancy in the United States in 100 years.

Public opinion analysis believes that the continuous decline in the life expectancy of the United States on the one hand is related to the new crown epidemic. Essence

The new crown epidemic in the two -year "reduction" is the main cause

A report issued by the National Health Statistics of the United States Disease Control and Prevention Center showed that from 2019 to 2021, the per capita life expectancy of the United States fell 2.7 years. The report believes that the new crown epidemic is the primary cause of the short -lived life expectancy of the United States in 2021.

Steven Woolf, Honorary Director of the Federal University Social and Health Center of the Federal University of Virginia, said this is a historic decline. Talking about the gap between the US epidemic prevention and control and other countries, Woolf said: American vaccination efficiency is not high, the prevention and control measures are poorly implemented, and even the most basic "mask order" is controversial. In many ways, the United States obviously obviously It is a special case.

The U.S. government has suspended the free new crown virus detection box on the 2nd this month. The plan was less than 9 months, and the number of supply only reached more than half of the original goals. In addition, starting this fall, the US government will also stop paying new crown testing, treatment and vaccine costs, which will make insurance institutions and people bear it. The US "Salon" website commented that in the face of hundreds of new crown deaths and thousands of medical patients every day, it is clear that Congress feels that these numbers are acceptable. Compared with Ukraine's military funding support, the funding support for the new crown is obviously not important.

Different races "Equal Mask" were torn open

The per capita life expectancy has declined for two consecutive years, and it has also opened up the equal mask of everyone in the United States. The report shows that the per capita life expectancy of Aboriginal people and Alaska's aboriginal population decreases the largest life expectancy. From 2019 to 2021, the per capita life expectancy of the Aboriginal group is 6.6 years, while the average of whites in the United States is shortened by 2.4 years. Ann Brock, former director of the Diabetes and Prevention Department of the Federal Indian Health Services Department, said that the long -term problems in the US public health system have made the aboriginal group particularly vulnerable to virus infection. These problems are rooted in poverty, social discrimination and medical care Health gap, etc.

Professor of the University of California, Corceten Domingo: During the entire epidemic, we repeatedly saw that African, Latin, and Aboriginal groups were indeed at the forefront of the epidemic. We see that they are in the risk of being infected, because they often fight against the front line of resistance, they often do not get additional resources to protect themselves, and their salary is also very low. The environment they live is easier to transmit the virus to the same residents.

Johns Hopkins University's Deputy Dean of the School of Public Health at the University of Public Health of Public Health of Johns Jousia Shafstan asked a series of questions in the form of self -questioning and self -answering in social media to criticize the life expectancy of the United States to continue to decline with the government It has a lot to do with racial discrimination in the epidemic.

Some netizens satire: The United States has the most expensive and best medical care system in the world, but this is just for those who can afford money. We are not only declining as a superpowers, but we are also dragged down by error messages spread by some companies. They only know the profit.
