Map: See how much life expectancy declined in each state in 2020
— the largest jump in a century. Life expectancy was lowest in Southern states in 2020, including Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee and West Virginia. That was most likely due to Covid deaths, according to Dr. Robert Anderson, chief of mortality statistics at NCHS, who reviewed the report."We really haven’t really seen anything like this since the 1918 flu pandemic," he said. At that time, the average life expectancy fell from 50.9 years in 1917 to 39.
"If Covid magically goes away, then we could see a big rebound," he added."That said, it’s hard to know what the long-term effects of the disease are going to be."
