Comment l'humanité a doublé l'espérance de vie en un siècle 

Humanity has doubled global life expectancy in just a century, raising the average from the mid-30s to over 70 years. This leap was driven not just by science, but also by social movements, public persuasion, and regulatory institutions. Achievements like vaccines and food safety transformed survival, but longer lives have also fueled challenges like population growth and climate change. The next frontier is closing health gaps and ensuring that the benefits of longer, healthier lives reach everyone.
