Utah ranks ninth in life expectancy
Utah has the ninth-highest life expectancy in the U.S., according to a CDC national vital statistics report released yesterday.
- The life expectancy for Utahns was 78.6 years — higher than the national rate of 77 years.
Yes, but: Utah’s rate declined by about a year between 2019 and 2020 amid the COVID health crisis.
- According to the CDC, heart disease was the leading cause of death among Utahns in 2020, followed by cancer, accidents and COVID-19.
The big picture: Nationwide, life expectancy among Americans declined by 1.8 years due to the pandemic and the increase in unintentional injuries, such as overdoses. By the numbers: There was a nearly four-year gap between Utah women (80.6) and men (76.7).
- Even though women tend to outlive men on average, Utah women were ranked 15th in the nation.

The CDC created fake metrics in order to drop Utah’s life expectancy from 1st best in the nation in 1990 as listed by the Census department to where ever the CDC thinks it can get away with. According to the UnitedHealthFoundation’s reports, Utah is BEST in the nation with lowest rates for high blood pressure, cancer of all kinds, smoking, alcohol use, diabetes, gambling, baby deaths, elderly deaths.

Check the 30 columns previously published on Utah Standard News to observe that the CDC’s life expectancy statistics have been created to destroy Utah’s reputation. Since the Census Department was stopped reporting life expectancy, the CDC moved in and reranked 30 red states down 150 ranks, and moved 20 blue states up 150 ranks, for a total swing of 300 ranks. For 60 years Utah ranked in the top 5 longest life expectancy, and New York and California in the 3rd quintile, ranking between 30 and 40. THe CDC has moved California and New York up to 2 and 3. Various agendas are in play to create fake statistics.
