I "think" most of those things are higher and were growing more than just after WWII and COVID the virus itself along with the "lockdown" has compounded those things? Amplified the problems that already existed and was growing.
I read an article some time before the pandemic that already said this newest generation was going to be the first to have a life expectancy lower than their parents. Based on some of the problems listed above.
