Before the 19th century there were no vaccines.
More than 50% of children died before reaching 2 years old, almost all from infectious diseases, now it is 0.02%.
The average life expectancy was 32 years.

US ‘demands control’ from Ukraine of key pipeline carrying Russian gas
Senior Kyiv economist describes latest postion of Trump administration in talks as ‘colonial-type’ bullying
The US has demanded control of a crucial pipeline in Ukraine used to send Russian gas to Europe, according to reports, in a move described as a colonial shakedown.
US and Ukrainian officials met on Friday to discuss White House proposals for a minerals deal. Donald Trump wants Kyiv to hand over its natural resources as “payback” in return for weapons delivered by the previous Biden administration. Continue reading...

The NHS waiting list has now fallen for 6 months in a row, down by 219,000.
The Government promised 2 million extra appointments. So far, it’s delivered 3 million in just 9 months.
There is plenty of work left to do, but Labour are getting the NHS back on its feet.

Exclusive: how the Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg got added to the White House Signal group chat
Internal investigation cleared the national security adviser Mike Waltz, but the mistake was months in the making
Donald Trump’s national security adviser Mike Waltz included a journalist in the Signal group chat about plans for US strikes in Yemen after he mistakenly saved his number months before under the contact of someone else he intended to add, according to three people briefed on the matter.
