Economic inequality is increasingly linked to disparities in life expectancy across the income distribution, and these disparities seem to be growing over time. (Figure from landmark study by Raj Chetty et al. in @JAMA_current) https://t.co/ksgI4RB49Z http
@ido87 (1) Yes. W&P likely cherry-picked the data that fit their hyp (there's no link b/w inequality & life expect, https://t.co/Vwt2sa9REN) (2) W&P focus on rich nations & HK is rich enough to be included (W&P say that HK is too small
@mike_soja @musingtree @BestWestern https://t.co/8WI5nN3wdq Meanwhile, in America, the poor have a 15 year shorter life expectancy than the rich, and other studies shown that only around 40% of people in low income communities report being in fair health.
Poverty influence life expectancy. I would love to see if polygenic scores for diseases are good predictors of social economic status or maybe the opposite. https://t.co/VPMfnhfsrh

Chetty et al (https://t.co/B9K9TF38vc) show that in US 2001 to 2014, higher income was associated with greater longevity, and that differences in LE across income groups increased over time. #inequalities
In the United States, life expectancy is increasing, but at a much faster rate for the rich than for the poor. Many factors likely cause this difference: access to health care, time and money for a healthy diet and exercise, low stress. #HealthInequality h
