COVID-19 caused biggest drop in life expectancy since WWII: Oxford study

The COVID-19 pandemic reduced life expectancy in 2020 by the largest amount since World War Two.

according to a study by Oxford University. The study showed that life expectancy dropped by more than six months compared with 2019 in 22 countries. The US suffered the biggest decreases, with a fall of more than two years in life expectancy for men. 

In addition, the corona virus destroyed people's social life.  The closure of schools, universities, the destruction of the social community, etc., has caused the world to face a major insecurity during the last two years.  Insecurity that is not over today, even after the general vaccination.

Although the state of the corona is improving today, and many of the problems that have arisen are being overcome, it still pervades the fear and caution of human social life.

However, many countries, including Iran, refused to buy the vaccine for a long time after the global vaccination, and this led to a severe delay in the improvement of conditions in such countries, and the seriousness of this huge problem for a long time.
