Abstract
In developing countries, life expectancy for both sexes has increased from 40 to 63 years since 1960, and in countries with high incomes it is now at least 75 years.2 Only in Uganda and Zambia has life expectancy dropped—from 48 to 43 for women and from 46 to 43 for men—due to the impact of AIDS.1Keywords
