I do wonder what’s going on in those cases where it crosses back over the previous decade’s line for a period (like 3mo for '71 and '61). The rest still looks better but what happened to the 3 month olds?

I would strongly guess the gap between 1941 to 1951 and (to a lesser extend to 1961) is due to the introduction of antibiotics.

Just a note that the article is for specifically England and Wales, and does not include the US.
It would be interesting to see average data from all countries with universal health care compared to the US though…
Also your image isn’t loading :x
