Since when did australia jump up so high, second highest non city/micro state and only 0.4 years behind Japan who had been the beacon for long lifespan for decades now

I'm genuinely asking because I have absolutely no idea about Australia's demographics. Has there been a high rate of immigration from Asians there?

Australia has high Asian immigration but it’s not like that’s a new thing, Asian immigration has been high for decades

Wouldn't it take decades for something like life expectancy to show up in the data?

Tfw china's life expectancy is higher than the US. US must be doing something really wrong to have the highest government spending on healthcare per capita in the entire world yet has quite literally the lowest life expectancy out of any first world nation and even lower then multiple second world nations

It’s not the highest government spending. It’s the highest total spending !

The US also has higher obesity rates, higher addiction rates, and a public that really hates living healthy.
China, in contrast, has crushed the drug trade and is less obese due to cultural reasons (at least for now, because obesity rates are skyrocketing there).
