Life expectancy around the world
Life expectancy can be termed as one of the key metrics for assessing general public’s health. Different factors come into play here, but one is, that people who are born in developed countries generally tend to have a higher life expectancy than their counterparts from the lesser developed nations. This may be due to various reasons, including better health facilities, proper diet and environment.
In 2019, both males and females born in China were expected to live the longest compared to any other country around the globe, with a life expectancy of 88 for women and 82 for men. San Marino, Japan and Liechtenstein were other countries with high life expectancies.
