They warned that probabilities of death of men during 30-59 year rise to 150% compared to the normal rates among the other people in same age.

The researchers published results of that study at PMG Open Journal.

They stressed that unemployment duplicates percentage of deaths among the people over 30 years.

On the other hand, Illiteracy increases probabilities of death by 30 %.

The researchers analyzed data of 27 million pensioners belong to the age category between 30-59 years.

Pavil  Geogeiv, leader of the research team, said  over a statement issued on Monday, that it is first time experts analyzed documented data based on inpidual factors and their effects on death in Germany.

Poverty does not strike all demographics equally. For example, in 2018, 10.6% of men, and 12.9% of women lived in Poverty USA. Along the same lines, the poverty rate for married couples in 2018 was only 4.7% - but the poverty rate for single-parent families with no wife present was 12.7%, and for single-parent families with no husband present was 24.9%.

In 2018, the poverty rate for people living with a disability was 25.7%. That’s nearly 4 million people living with a disability—in poverty.

In 2018, 16.2% of all children (11.9 million kids) lived in Poverty USA—that’s almost 1 in every 6 children.

In 2015, the National Center on Family Homelessness analyzed state-level data and found that nationwide, 2.5 million children experience homelessness in a year.

For more details about poverty thresholds, visit the US Census Bureau. Poverty thresholds are intended for use as a statistical yardstick, not a complete description of what people and/or families actually need to live.

What’s worse, 5.3% of the population—or 17.3 million people—live in deep poverty, with incomes below 50% of their poverty thresholds.

And 29.9% of the population—or 93.6 million—live close to poverty, with incomes less than two times that of their poverty thresholds. To learn more about poverty thresholds and what it is like to live at the poverty line, take a look at the statistics.
