Russia has the largest gap in terms of life in women and men

Recent studies show that Russia has the highest gender inequality in mortality is from us mortality between men and women has the greatest difference in favor of the fair sex. Relevant data published in the medical journal Lancet.

Last year news outlets reported that Russia came in first place in Europe among the countries with the highest male mortality up to age 65 is 43%. This time in the Lancet was published the work “the Burden of disease in Russia since 1980 and 2016.” According to them, in the country today, there is a surprising pattern: while Russian women demonstrate a clear trend of rising life expectancy, men die EN masse too early.

“One of the most notable characteristics of mortality in Russia over the past 36 years is the high level of mortality among men of working age,” the article says.
Researchers have linked high smartestenergy men “socio-economic upheaval after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989 and the economic crisis in 2008.” Men-the Russians not only live on average 11 years less than women, and women are more susceptible to different diseases.

Note that by 2016 the life expectancy of women averaged 76.2 years (this is a historical high for the Russian companies). Men, whose life expectancy in 1994, the average was 63.7 years, by 2016, are living longer by two years, thus seriously falling behind their compatriots.

According to scientific experts, nowhere in the countries with similar social and demographic character there is such a large gap in the mortality of the two sexes, as in Russia. However, according to the chief anesthetist, Ministry of health Olga Tkachova, after 10 years, the life expectancy of Russians will increase again, and are available today, the gap with men still continues, though men will live longer.
