Life Expectancy in Sweden Falls For the First Time in Half a Century Amid COVID-19 Pandemic © Photo : Pixabay https://sputniknews.com/europe/202104011082505324-life-expectancy-in-sweden-falls-for-the-first-time-in-half-a-century-amid-covid-19-pandemic/ The COVID-19 pandemic marks a clear trendbreaker, as life expectancy in Sweden has been increasing steadily over the past 100 years and last took a dip in 1968 during the so-called Hong Kong flu. In 2020, life expectancy for both women and men fell for the first time in half a century, the Institute for Future Studies (IFFS) has concluded, having mapped the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on mortality. According to the report, 7,752 more deaths occurred in 2020 compared with the previous forecast for the year, which also affected life expectancy.
