We have longer life span than america and our infrastructure is better lol. You live your short little lives in absolute filthy slums enjoy!
China's average life expectancy has surpassed that of the United States in recent official announcements, driven by rising longevity in China and declining or stalling life spans in the U.S. [

Overall Life Expectancy
- China: Reached roughly 77.9 to 78 years or higher according to recent figures, showing steady decades-long improvements in healthcare, sanitation, and nutrition. [1, 2]
- United States: Dropped to roughly 76 to 77 years during pandemic-era declines and has lagged behind other developed nations. [1, 2]
- Healthy Lifespan: World Health Organization (WHO) data previously showed China overtaking the U.S. in healthy life expectancy (years lived without major disability or disease), as Americans often spend their final decade in poorer health. [1]
Key Factors Behind the Shift
- U.S. Declines: Driven by lifestyle-related conditions (obesity), drug overdoses (the opioid crisis), suicides, and unequal access to affordable healthcare.
- China's Progress: Driven by rapid economic growth, expanding basic healthcare coverage, cleaner water, and better nutrition. [1, 2, 3]
