Trends in life expectancy and healthy life years at birth and age 65 in the UK, 2008-2016, and other countries of the EU28: An observational crosssectional study

Claire E. Welsh et al.

Summary: As society ages, life expectancy increases have slowed in the UK and EU28 countries, with a decrease in healthy life years in the UK since 2011, especially due to an increase in unhealthy life in younger age groups. The UK's performance in terms of healthy life years relative to other EU28 countries has been poor, making it challenging to achieve the government's goal of increasing healthy life expectancy by five years by 2035.
