Abstract

The life expectancy of Brazilians has been gradually increasing. The Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) demonstrated through data collection that from 1940 to 2016 it increased by 30.3 years. And that the state with the highest life expectancy in Brazil is Santa Catarina (IBGE, 2017).
