Young People are Dying at Disturbing Rates

Went to what should have been an unnecessary memorial service just two weeks ago:
Despite spending more on health care than any other country, the United States has seen increasing mortality and falling life expectancy for people age 25 to 64, who should be in the prime of their lives.
