Comment Comment by tntn HN title is not good. Original title is "U.S. Life Expectancy Drops for Third Year in a Row, Reflecting Rising Drug Overdoses, Suicides."The comparison is between the last three years and 1915-1918, but the Spanish flu was just getting going in 1918.EDIT: folks just arriving, the HN title has changed since I commented. It previously said "worst trend since Spanish flu," or something. parent tntn 7 years ago
