Ich habe die Lebenserwartung bei der Geburt zwischen den Vereinigten Staaten und China anhand von Daten der Weltbank verglichen (ab 2010).
Im Jahr 2010 hatten die USA einen klaren Vorsprung von etwa drei Jahren vor China. Im Laufe der Zeit verbesserte sich China stetig, während die USA langsamer wuchsen und während der COVID-19-Periode einen vorübergehenden Rückgang erlebten, als die Lebenserwartung spürbar sank.
China war weitgehend nicht in gleicher Weise betroffen und setzte seinen allmählichen Aufwärtstrend fort.
Bis 2024 hat sich der Abstand auf etwa ein Jahr verringert, wodurch sich die beiden Länder viel näher kommen als im Jahr 2010.

So covid had no change in China?
If there ever was a graph with an elephant in the room, it’s this one.
We all just going to go along with this…yeah? 👀
76 vs 79 in 2010 ist already pretty much caught up. I don’t like this kind of representation, it feels misleading
It’s about culture. Chinese Americans have a higher life expectancy than any other country on earth.
Chinese American men: 86.8
Chinese American women: 91.3.
You can perform this same test with any country and the US will come out ahead.
The idea that China, as the virus’s original source, was not affected by COVID-19 simply does not exists. This curve is a state-sponsored lie.
Seeing as how ours has been dropping in recent years, they’ll likely surpass us soon.
Whats the average age over the years for both countries, I can imagine China is not very happy about that.
Not looking to argue OP, I’m just genuinely curious, do you believe the Chinese graph is accurate, or are you using it as it’s the only source that reports the numbers you’re looking to compare?
With a difference of 0.87 years I feel like we’re splitting hairs. Does that one year on avarage really represents something practical or meaningfull?
If the Chinese quit smoking, they will pass the United States in life expectancy.
Trick is to let all of your vulnerable folks die off to really give yourself a rocket boost to get up to 80 in the years after
Tbf, it’s not THAT hard. This is the US.
Chinese graph isn’t accurate since they hid millions of deaths during the COVID pandemic.
