Some generations—especially late Gen X and early Millennials—are already experiencing worse mortality than those before them

    Baby Boomers born between 1950 and 1959 mark a turning point.

    My unresearched guess is that we got an effort to stop infant and childhood death with penicillin and other medical inventions. That would have upped their mortality and then as they got older newer ways to die was increased. This first generation is dying so we are still figuring out what is a proper average lifespan. It might just be a statistic thing.
