<In America, life expectancy at birth was less than 50 years in 1900, and is now 77.>

It's interesting, my observation is that people are sicker, and fatter younger than my grandparents and great aunts and uncles were. I know a big part the big jump in life expectancy was from vaccines and other factors decreasing infant mortality, and really wonder if health is really better.
