Today in class we discussed some things like how in some countries people will live longer than someone living in another country. For example, someone in Monaco will lives a lot longer than somebody living in Chad. This is because of how the place is prospering. In Chad, Africa there is a lot of hunger and starvation. This is not as big a problem in Monaco. This is the same for other places as well.
We also discussed how women and men have a different life expectancy. In this, women are statistically recorded to live longer than men. This is because men usually have harder jobs, and there are currently a lot more men in the military than women. Another reason that was explained was that women tend to go to the doctor the day or so after feeling ill. In mans cases, they will try and tough it out for a few months and then find out when they finally go to the doctor that it is too late and they are very sick which could have been prevented had they come in sooner.
