Let’s take a look at the top 10 longest-lived people in the world ▼▼▼

Nowadays, human beings are living longer and longer. According to the Guinness World Records, the world's oldest Swiss is Jeanne Calment of France. She was born in 1875 and she was 122 years old.

However, some Russian scholars questioned that Carman did not live so long. After her death, her daughter replaced her in order to evade inheritance tax.

The remaining 9 elderly people in the world are all women, among which 4 are Japanese and 2 are American.

The world's oldest man is Japan's Kimura Jiroemon, who died in 2013 at the age of 116.

If you count the surviving person, Kane Tanaka (Kane Tanaka) in Japan has the longest life span, reaching 118 years old. The remaining 9 are also women, of which 3 are French.

According to United Nations data, in 2020, Japanese people accounted for 0.062% of the population, which is the highest rate in the world. Uruguay accounted for 0.061% and ranked second, Hong Kong accounted for 0.047%, which is the third highest place in the world.

If you calculate the average life expectancy at birth, Hong Kong people surpass Japan to become the first!

According to the Human Development Report 2020 of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the average life expectancy of Hong Kong people at birth is as long as 84.9 years, which is the world's average life expectancy, 0.3 years older than the Japanese, and developed countries such as Singapore and Australia. It is also one of the top 10 regions with the longest life expectancy; the countries with the shortest life expectancy are all in Africa.

The average life expectancy of Hong Kong people has continued to increase over the past 70 years. It is expected to be as high as 84.6 years in 2020, 21.5 years more than 70 years ago. It is estimated that by 2045, the average life expectancy of Hong Kong people can be as high as 87.9 years.

The life expectancy of women has always been higher than that of men. The life expectancy of women born between 2015 and 2020 is as high as 87.5 years, which is nearly 6 years longer than that of men. By 2035, the life expectancy of women will be as high as 90 years.

The fertility rate of Hong Kong people has fallen for six consecutive years. The number of newborn babies has dropped sharply. When do women usually give birth?
