Americans’ health is declining and millions of middle-age workers face the prospect of shorter, and less active, retirements than their parents enjoyed.
The US age-adjusted mortality rate—a measure of the number of deaths per year—rose 1.2 per cent from 2014 to 2015, according to the Society of Actuaries. That’s the first year-over-year increase since 2005, and only the second rise greater than one per cent since 1980.
