Life expectancy in China was just 32 in the year 1850, and over the course of the next 170 years, it more than doubled to 76.6.

If you do the math then in 2190 they’ll be living until they are 153.2.

It was actually still around 32 for a hundred years after 1850, it had been sitting stagnant right up until the communists came to power.
