印度人的预期寿命增加了2岁，达到69.7岁

NEW DELHI: India’s life expectancy at birth inched up to 69.7 in the 2015-19 period, well below the estimated global average life expectancy of 72.6 years. It has taken almost ten years to add two years to life expectancy. A look at life expectancy at age one and at age five in this period suggests high infant and under-five mortality could be the reason India finds it difficult to raise life expectancy at birth faster.

新德里：2015-2019年期间，印度人的预期寿命上升至69.7岁，远低于全球平均预期寿命72.6岁。用了近十年的时间才将预期寿命延长两年。

对这一时期1岁和5岁儿童预期寿命的研究表明，婴儿和5岁以下儿童的高死亡率可能是印度难以更快地提高出生时预期寿命的原因之一。

Data in the recently released “abridged life tables” 2015-19 of the sample registration system (SRS) shows that the gap between life expectancy at birth and life expectancy at age one or age five is the biggest in states with the highest infant mortality (IMR), Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. In Uttar Pradesh, with the second highest IMR of 38, life expectancy jumps the highest, by 3.4 years, on completion of the first year. In Madhya Pradesh, with the highest IMR of 43, surviving the first year after birth raises life expectancy by 2.7 years.

最近发布的样本登记系统(SRS) 2015-19年“简速生命表”数据显示，在婴儿死亡率(IMR)最高的邦，中央邦和北方邦，出生时预期寿命和1岁或5岁时预期寿命的差距最大。在北方邦，IMR为38，位居第二，一岁后预期寿命增加最多，增加3.4岁。在印度中央邦，死亡率最高，为43，出生后活过一年的，预期寿命可延长2.7岁。

Such huge gaps in how long the average person can expect to live at birth and at one year is evident in several states, including Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Assam and Odisha.

在包括拉贾斯坦邦、恰蒂斯加尔邦、古吉拉特邦、阿萨姆邦和奥里萨邦在内的几个邦，出生时和出生后一年预期寿命的巨大差距非常明显。

Over a 45-year period, India had added about 20 years to its life expectancy at birth from 49.7 in 1970-75 to 69.7 by 2015-19. Odisha has had the highest increase, of over 24 years, from 45.7 to 69.8 years followed by Tamil Nadu, where it increased from 49.6 to 72.6. Uttar Pradesh had the second lowest life expectancy of 65.6 in 2015-19, after Chhattisgarh with just 65.3. However, from having the lowest life expectancy in India of just 43 years in 1970-75, it has increased by 22.6 years in Uttar Pradesh.

经过45年，印度人出生时的预期寿命增加了约20岁，从1970-1975年的49.7岁增加到2015-2019年的69.7岁。

奥里萨邦增长最快，24年来从45.7岁增长到69.8岁，其次是泰米尔纳德邦，从49.6岁增长到72.6岁。

2015-2019年，北方邦的预期寿命为65.6岁，排在倒数第二，恰蒂斯加尔邦只有65.3岁。

然而，北方邦的预期寿命从1970年至1975年的43岁（最低），增加了22.6岁。

Worryingly, in Uttarakhand life expectancy at birth has reduced in the recent past. After touching 71.7 in 2010-14, it was down to 70.6 by 2015-19 showing a steady downward trend in the intervening period. Bihar and Jharkhand remained the only states where male life expectancy was higher than for women in both urban and rural areas.

令人担忧的是，在北阿坎德邦，出生时的预期寿命在最近降低了。在2010-2014年达到71.7之后，在2015-2019年下降到70.6，在此期间呈稳步下降的趋势。比哈尔邦和贾坎德邦仍然是唯一一个城市和农村地区的男性预期寿命都高于女性的邦。

Kerala (one of the most nature friendly states) with such clean air trailing Delhi (knowm for its pollution worldwide) is very surprising and makes one wonder on the credibility of this survey.

喀拉拉邦的预期寿命低于德里，这让人非常惊讶，让人怀疑这项调查的可信度。

如果男性和女性的性能力和欲望与预期寿命不匹配，那么延长寿命就没有什么意义，否则就是吃饭和睡觉

Rise of two years in life expectancy is not a mean achievement with such diverse culture and about 140 crore population. Infant mortality rate should be reduced through better health care system.

对于如此多样化的文化和大约14亿人口来说，预期寿命增加两年并不是一个成就。应该通过建立更好的保健系统来降低婴儿死亡率。

while the increasing average age is a sign of the availability of better health facilities and life styles. But do we really need to achieve 100 years of age?,earlier the retirement age was 58-60 years....living 40 years further on the savings of 35-40 years of savings is almost impossible in an inflationary environment.

平均年龄的增加则表明卫生设施和生活方式的改善。但是我们真的需要活到100岁吗?

之前退休年龄为58-60岁....

在通货膨胀的环境下，靠35-40年的积蓄再活40年几乎是不可能的。

Life expectancy is increasing despite taking more adulterated food. This may be due to better hygiene, decrease in poverty level and better medical drugs.

尽管食用了更多的掺假食品，人们的预期寿命仍在增加。这可能是由于卫生条件的改善、贫困程度的降低以及更好的医疗药品。

All credit goes to Modi. People are forced to fast more because of inflation and gas prices. Fasting is good for health. Master stroke.

这一切都归功于莫迪。由于通货膨胀和汽油价格上涨，人们被迫绝食。禁食对健康有益。高招！
