PARIS (AFP) -
Life expectancy in 2040 is set to rise at least a little in all nations but the rankings will change dramatically, with Spain taking the top spot while China and the United States trade places, researchers said Wednesday.
With a projected average lifespan of nearly 85.8 years, Spain -- formerly in 4th place -- will dethrone Japan, which sits atop the rankings today with a lifespan of 83.7 years, and will drop to 2nd place in 2040.
In a shift that will be seen by some to reflect a superpower changing-of-the-guard, the world's two largest economies effectively swap positions compared to 2016: in 2040 the US drops from 43rd to 64th (79.8 years), while China rises from 68th to 39th (81.9 years).

A yuge factor in this is infant mortality, and different countries count dead babbies differently. "Stillborns" were never alive, after all.
I also wonder if mom's age is a factor, too, what with moms in lots of industrialized having kids so late, leading to more health problems. Maybe Spain still has lots of heroic 23 yo moms
