[>> Best stretch in the morning (takes 1-min)]( [Countries with the youngest and oldest populations]( Madison Troyer [ Countries with the youngest and oldest populations ]( [See full slideshow »]( In studying the spread of COVID-19, a Pew Research center analysis of data from the United Nations noted a distinct correlation between several countries with the highest coronavirus death tolls and older populations. Throughout this tracing process, data show that while the majority of the world’s population is young, vast differences are found between regions and countries. And older countries with pockets of dense populations were found to be particularly susceptible to COVID-19. Stacker mined data from the CIA World Factbook (updated in January 2020) andU.S. Census Bureau International Data Base (updated in 2020) to find out which countries in the world have the highest and lowest populations. The list represents the 25 countries with the highest median age and the 25 countries with the lowest median age, demonstrating which have longer or shorter life expectancies. Only sovereign states and members of the United Nations are included in this ranking, which lists countries according to their median ages. Researchers have found time and again that where people live has a tremendous impact on their longevity overall. Older populations often coincide with economic development, which spells more retirement support from the government, higher-caliber health care, better nutrition among residents, and lower birth rates. One thing that is quickly evident is how much wealth leads to older populations who are living longer, giving countries higher median ages, as well as how much war and violence lead to younger populations. As you might imagine, affluent countries with good infrastructure and social services, like Japan and Denmark, have older populations. Meanwhile, countries whose citizens live largely below the poverty line and have limited access to health care, like Chad and Senegal, have some of the world’s youngest populations. Read on to learn which other factors increase life expectancy, and which ones are likely to shorten a person’s life span.

Growing social media usage means more people are exposed to the statements celebrities express publicly. And because many believe with great power comes great responsibility, the things celebrities say on social media may be perceived with heightened significance during the current coronavirus pandemic. Celebrities and public figures have often used their social clout and wealth to promote various causes. While most celebrities are not medical experts and thus not primary sources of health and safety information, it's generally believed that their vast social media presence can promote knowledge and ideas meaningfully. Amid the current coronavirus pandemic, many celebrities have gone the extra mile to donate face masks and ventilators to health care providers. Others have amplified discussions to help those who are especially devastated by the current pandemic. However, it seems a handful of other celebrities are using their power and social influence irresponsibly. Some have spread misinformation that could prove to be harmful. Others have expressed defiance toward stay-at-home orders or total callousness towards the casualty rate of the virus. Several prominent figures may have had good intentions with their public statements, but the public may have viewed them as hypocritical if those statements weren't paired with the willingness to donate personal wealth. In fact, many of these celebrity reactions have been viewed as empty, tone-deaf, and overly sentimental. Stacker scoured local and national news websites from March 2020 onward to compile 25 charitable and 25 cringeworthy celebrity reactions to the coronavirus pandemic. Read on to see if any of your favorite celebrities have been acting in goodwill or in bad faith.
