The US currently have 13 verifiable living men aged 108+. 14 in a week if everything goes well. Based on annual mortality rates at those ages, I would expect, say, 3-5 of these men to live to age 110+.

@futurist George Thiessen hasn't been confirmed alive in over a year and I haven't been able to identify any documents for John Curran and Joe Harris.

OK, but can David Golden (above) be verified? Because that would somewhat compensate for this.

@futurist probably but I haven't had time to look

The male supercentenarian numbers remain very thin for the USA.

Without other validations, a second 110 year old would not occur until mid next year (health permitting).

If this information is confirmed, the US will once again have no one 110+ on the list, just as on 28 Oct 2024, Eugene Baltes turned 110 on 29 Oct 2024 and from that date the US had a living male supercentenarian, Vincent Dransfield died on 26 June 2024, and was the last man aged 110 in the US. With that, New York has 2 representatives on the list again, the state lost a representative when Joe Schein died on 24 May 2024. Eugene Baltes was the oldest member of this list, he was on the list since 19 Jun 2023, Rudy Thompson had died on the 3rd and there were doubts about Joe Baker's date of birth, and he entered the list. Now Illinois has no one on this table, this had already happened when August Barberi died, on 27 Aug 2022 (#6 at the time) and it happens again now. The oldest person on the list now, Henry Polichetti, entered exactly 1 year ago, Jan 3, 2024, after 4 news reports of deaths among the list members in a short space of time.
