Three days ago, I surfed on www.worldhealth. net, then,to be
transfered possibly to another website to find an (news?) article (may
be):21st century increasing life expectency is ending. Debated by Dr.
S. Jay Olshansky to say that two storms: obesity and infectious
disease would affect the results of human expentency to decline in
21st century. But  Dr. James W Vaupel of the Max Planck institute from
Germany by a fax has predicated - "It is a small chance, less than one
is 100, that Dr. Olshansky ........ prove correct."  (Besides, some
demographers have attended the debate.) Would you like to let me know
where is the website to be found the article and its contents ? Or,
e-mail the article and contents for me ?  Thanks !

Hello hyangarden and thank you for your question.

Some excerpts:

"Olshansky blamed the rising tide of obesity and the reemergence of
deadly infectious diseases for threatening to dash Americans'
confidence that each generation will live longer than the one before."

"Said Vaupel, "There is a small chance -- less than one in 100 -- that
Olshansky's prediction of declining life expectancy might possibly
prove correct."

For copyright reasons I am unable to post the full article here,
however if you click on the link below you will be able to read the
