"Figure 6: Cohort life expectancy is projected to increase under these three scenarios^1^","" "Cohort life expectancy at birth for females: principal, high and low variants, UK, 1981 to 2068","" "","" "Notes","1. Unlike period life expectancy, projections of cohort life expectancy also vary historically, therefore cohort figures for years prior to 2018 will differ from those in previous sets of projections. This is because members of these cohorts are still living and assumptions about their future improvements in mortality have changed."
