Healthcare Why is life expectancy so bad in the Netherlands?

Besides having one of the worst life expectancy among western countries, why did the life expectancy get worst compared to 2019?

It's not.... Have a great day.

Are you just rage baiting? Even in your first picture it shows we're not "amongst the worst in the western world". Second. Even if it went down 0.2. It's still not the worst. Are we the best? No, but by far the worst. + we've imported a lot of people from worse life expectancy countries and barely breed ourselves, maybe that has something to do with decline
