Media Release War Impacts on New Zealand Life Expectancy

typo ?

[edit]

A population study, released by Statistics New Zealand titled A History of Survival in New Zealand, highlights that the life expectancy of New Zealand males born in the mid 1980's would have been five years higher without the impact of the two world wars, as 10% of males died in war

Isn't it 1870's?

where is the "rise due to past wars"?

[edit]

i don't see it in the article... Doldrums 07:51, 20 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

in fact, source says

Without the direct impact of deaths in World War I and II, life expectancy at birth would have been five years higher for males born in the mid-1890s, and three years higher for males born in the late 1910s.
