Why won’t we see a 5 year increase in healthy life expectancy in the UK? “Because of social determinants of health. we need to start addressing them. inequality in the UK is staggering.” says Tina Woods from @Longevity_Intl at the #LongevityForum2019 conference #Longevity
@ILCUK@Longevity_Intl UK life expectancy inequality certainly is staggering. What @TinaWoods described is set out in short thread👇. Nearly 20 year differential in healthy life expectancy and getting worse. We won’t rapidly increase average without focus on those left behind.
