Yes, the opiate addiction is a temporary setback, but improvement is almost never monatomic in every population subset. Worldwide life expectancy continues to rise at a pretty good pace.
- dv_dt 8y agoI don't think you can blame opiate addiction alone. (Sorry I was adding to the text while you were replying).
