Original Note:
Author appears to conflate cohort life expectancy with period life expectancy in these posts. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/lifeexpectancies/methodologies/periodandcohortlifeexpectancyexplained The figures and paper referenced in first post measure only period life expectancy through 2021, which contains no information about the expected lifespan of those who survive 2021. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(24)00476-8/fulltext
