Geoffrey Miller on Twitter: "This is so dumb. Lower infant mortality has increased mean 'life expectancy at birth' a lot in the last 250 years.

  I wonder if there is a high correlation between people who don’t believe in vaccines and people who don’t understand childhood illnesses skewed mean life expectancy very low until 1930 or so.

  I love to correct people for that same mistake. But maybe we should blame the stats not the people confused by them? Switch to "life expectancy for those who make it to age 5" or something like that?

  The research is fragmented, but in 1st C. Rome if you lived to be 30 your life expectancy was well north of 60 since at that point you had developed immunity to diseases, survived war, childbirth, etc. Main killer of old was sepsis from dental cavities.
