re: #150 NY Nana

In Britain, cancer treatment is now withheld for those beyond 75 years. I don’t think most Americans understand that much(not all) of the discrepancy in longevity stats is due to the fact that only America counts ALL live deliveries, including preemies, as live birth if they make it out breathing. Other countries have time periods. This causes a statistically significant decrease in apparent American longevity. When adjusted, America is only surpassed by a couple of countries, most notably Japan.
