More or Less: Behind the Stats - Why is life expectancy falling in the USA?

The average life expectancy of Americans is shrinking at an alarming rate.

Between 2019 and 2021, a staggering 2.7 years has been shaved off, leaving the revised figure at 76.1 years - the lowest it?s been in more than two decades.
