This increase is forecasted to be modest compared with that in [...] and 2050 (19·5% [6·9-34·1]). Our combined risk elimination scenario shows that the USA could gain 3·8 additional years (3·6-4·0) of life expectancy and 4·1 additional years (3·9-4·3) of HALE in 2050 versus [...] the USA could gain 0·4 additional years (0·3-0·6) of life expectancy and 0·6...
