If you feel that the COVID-19 pandemic is not serious right now, it is not even very harmful.
It is recommended to take a look at the latest survey report below.
This is a chart of the 100-year U.S. life expectancy trend that was just posted online.
The data comes from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other health research institutions.
On this trend chart, there are two obvious downward ranges that make people look frightening.
The first downtrend occurred around the 1920s, the fastest decline in life expectancy in the United States in the entire one-hundred-year period.
From 52 years old in 1917 to 40 years old in 1918-1919.
Americans' average life expectancy at this time was shortened by a full 12 years, setting an unprecedented short-lived record.
Why is there such a terrible scene:
The reason is that in 1918, a rare flu broke out in Kansas, which then swept across the world and claimed nearly 100 million lives.
This is the most deadly epidemic disease in recent history – the Spanish flu.
As the birthplace of the plague, the United States died 200,000 people in a month of that year, resulting in a 12-year reduction in the average American life expectancy in 1918.
The second decline range is 2021.
Because in this year, the United States suffered the most serious covid-19 epidemic.
To make matters worse, due to the epidemic prevention policy of pulling the crotch, the United States has become the country with the largest number of NEW crown deaths in the world.
Exactly one million Americans died in two years from COVID-19.
This data has directly led to a significant decline in life expectancy in the United States in 2021.
As can be seen from the trend chart, even during the extremely dehumanizing Period of World War II, life expectancy in the United States continued to grow.
Throughout World War II, life expectancy in the United States continued to climb due to rapid economic development:
From 63 in 1945 to 78.9 in 2020.
There was hardly any decline in the whole middle, even a slight downward trend.
Then in 2021, the disastrous consequences of the United States abandoning the fight against the epidemic quickly emerged:
Life expectancy in the United States fell from 78.9 years in 2019 to 76.6 years in 2021.
Some even said that by ignoring the dangers of the new crown epidemic, the new crown virus directly saved Americans two years less.
The U.S. health science community agrees that the decline in life expectancy in the United States is not so much directly caused by the new crown virus as it is caused by the United States' top-down disregard and abandonment of epidemic prevention and control.
Dr. Steven of Virginia Commonwealth University said:
"The consequences are not so much related to the virus variant as to the boycott of vaccination and the refusal of the public to wear masks and other coercive measures to reduce the spread of the virus."
"This speaks volumes about the life consequences of the U.S. response to COVID-19."
A more direct comparison is that among the 19 peer countries, life expectancy in other countries fell by only one-third of that of the United States in 2020 (an average decline of 0.6 years), and rebounded in 2021, with an average increase of about 0.3 years.
In the decade leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic, life expectancy in the United States changed by an average of less than 0.1 years per year.
It is clear that the United States is the country that has failed the most in the fight against COVID-19, and now it is also the country that has borne the heaviest cost.
Seeing such a scene, every Chinese people can't help but pay attention to epidemic prevention and control.
