MHA Special Report on Male Longevity

Men's Health America released a special report on male longevity (or the lack thereof) which can be read here. Some interesting facts from the report: " The World Health Report, published every year by the World Health Organization (WHO), is the most authoritative source of information on life expectancy and mortality patterns in every country around the world...The rate of suicide is almost universally higher among men compared to women by an aggregate ratio of 3.5 to 1... The lifespan gender gap exists in almost every country in the world. The disparity ranges from 3.8 years in Israel to a disturbing 15.4 years in the Russian Federation."
