F-ing lie.
*ALL* too late at night to post.......
I’m a doctor and not sure what to make of this.
They have the mortality rate change...but not the average age of death.
I wonder how many deaths are from lung cancer (40 years ago we mainly saw it in men but now we see it in women) and from diabetes/obesity.
But as a whole, the map is meaningless.
You might want to look at the correlation between ‘The Pill’ and breast cancer.
I work in a nursing home. Two weeks ago we had a 107 year old woman die. A couple of months before we had another 107 year old die. We have lots of women in their mid-to-upper 90 year olds. A lot of them are in relatively good health. Anecdotal, I know. My grandmother was born in 1879 and lived to be 100.
