Everything was up to world standards in 20
years after Second World War too.
Russia made huge strides and succeeded in
closing much of the gap. By 1965, life expectancy for males was 64.3,
67.5 and 66.8 for Russia, France and the United
States respectively, and 73.4, 74.7 and 73.7 in the case of
females. However this progress was not maintained in later years. The
factors behind these developments will be outlined below.
