> living longer, healthier lives than they ever have.
This is not true in America. Life expectancy has dropped significantly after COVID and several types of cancer are on the rise (notably, pancreatic and liver). Americans are more obese than ever with significant all-cause mortality and lifestyle impacts.
While the impact of COVID may eventually even out, it is just not the case that health and life expectancy is monotonically increasing.
