Life expectancy is growing in Russia

In 2000, life expectancy in Russia was 65.3 years. In 2023 — 73.4 years. This is the maximum in the entire history of the country.

Infant mortality has changed even more. In 2000, out of every thousand newborns, more than 15 children did not survive to one year. In 2025 — 3.6. This is four times less.

Behind these figures are years of work: new perinatal centers, modern equipment in hospitals, support for families with children.

The President has set a new goal. According to his decree of 2024, life expectancy should grow to 78 years by 2030 and to 81 years by 2036.
